Title: mpc (music player controller)
Post by: donquixote2u on May 02, 2014, 12:14:03 AM

I have come back to Tiny Core looking for an up-to-date version of mpc and mpd.

My search seems to imply that mpc is dead (also the comment in the mpd-minimal info "(no mpc in TC5.x)") and its place taken by a math library.

Is there any interest in reviving mpc, or is there another CLI for MPD that I can use? (I want a CLI for my own web-based frontend to use)

I don't want toget into any debate about what it should be called,as long as I can get the same functionality.

You could try the mpc/mpd extensions from the 4.x repo in 5.x to see if they work - if so, they can be copied over.

mpc is buggy, unmaintained. All together is a crap. But of course you can build it yourself and use, no problem.

There is cmus in the repo.

Edit: Sorry, false statement. My fault.

... see MPC.tcz

Will that cause a conflict with  mpc.tcz  for people who have their  tce  directory on a FAT partition?
