XMMS2-LAUNCHER(1) General Commands Manual XMMS2-LAUNCHER(1) NAME xmms2-launcher - XMMS2 daemon launcher SYNOPSIS xmms2-launcher [-l file] [-P file] [-v] [--] [XMMS2D_OPTION] ... xmms2-launcher -h DESCRIPTION XMMS2 is a redesign of the XMMS (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMMS) music player. It features a client-server model, allowing multiple (even simultaneous!) user interfaces, both textual and graphical. All common audio formats are supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a flexible media library to organise your music. xmms2-launcher starts xmms2d(1) in the background. The main feature is that it does not exit until the IPC system of XMMS2 is available, meaning that as soon as the xmms2-launcher process has exited successfully xmms2d(1) is ready to accept commands. OPTIONS Unrecognized options and options occuring beyond pseudo-option -- are passed to xmms2d(1). -l file, --logfile=file Write log to file instead of the default log file location. -P file, --pidfile=file Write the pid of xmms2d(1) to file. -v, --verbose Make xmms2-launcher verbose. -?, -h, --help Show short help information and exit. -- Options beyond this marker are passed to xmms2d(1). XMMS2D_OPTION See xmms2d(1) for a list of options and their effect. FILES Below CACHEDIR is $XDG_CACHE_HOME/xmms2 on UNIX if the XDG_CACHE_HOME-environment variable is set. Otherwise it is $HOME/.cache/xmms2 (UNIX except Darwin), or $HOME/Library/xmms2/logs (Darwin). CACHEDIR/xmms2d.log The default location for storing log output of xmms2d(1).
