How exactly are you launching mplayer? How did you configure mc to use it?

And do you want it to run in the foreground (stopping mc) or in the
background (detached from mc)?

(BTW, you do know there's 'mpv' nowadays, right?)

Re: mplayer keyboard control

2016-08-31 Thread Mike 
mplayer must be running in the foreground in order to receive your 
keyboard events.


I've found the best way to use mc for music control is to modify your 
menu file (F9 -> Command -> Edit menu file) and add entries with slave 
commands for xmms/deadbeef/whatever running elsewhere.


eg:

=+ t r & t t
Q   Enqueue tagged files in MP3 Player
deadbeef --queue %t
set %u

It's also possible to get your window manager to intercept certain key 
combos and send commands to your audio player. The technique varies from 
one wm to another.

How to tell mc to not intercept keybindings send to running 
applications like mplayer?

BTW, most systems support the /dev/fd/# pseudo files. So even if the
software doesn't have special support for stdout, you can always use
/dev/fd/1.

The manual page for ssconvert says you can use fd://1 for standard
output. Use this as the output file.

Try it:

View=%view{ascii} (TMP_FILE=${MC_TMPDIR}/view.; ssconvert
--recalc "%f" -T Gnumeric_stf:stf_assistant ${TMP_FILE} && cat
${TMP_FILE} && rm ${TMP_FILE}) || xls2csv %f || strings %f

mplayer keyboard control

2016-08-31 Thread benoit felix 
Hiya

I managed to make mplayer the default video player in mc. It is all fine but the keyboard control does not work anymore (eg. pause, stop, etc). I initially thought that I would have to put some prefix key like Esc-Tab for the autocompletion in the mc command line but nope. How to tell mc to not intercept keybindings send to running applications like mplayer?

that obviously cannot work

when run on the commandline, ssconvert needs output file, and possibly
also --export-type. The following command works for me:

  ssconvert --export-type=Gnumeric_stf:stf_assistant zzz.gnumeric zzz.txt

The question is, how to make it work inside mc?
I don't want the output to go to a file. I want to view it in mc.

Hi Fourhundred,

Try to use this:

View=%view{ascii} ssconvert %f || xls2csv %f || strings %f

view .gnumeric files in mc (in console)

2016-08-31 Thread Fourhundred Thecat 
Hello,

has anybody figured out, how to view gnumeric files in mc (in
console/text mode)?

I am aware that this can be configured in /etc/mc/mc.ext, and I see
there is already section for excel files:

  type/^Microsoft\ Excel
Edit=true
Open=(gnumeric %f >/dev/null 2>&1 &)
View=%view{ascii} xls2csv %f || strings %f

Gnumeric has a utility ssconvert for converting into other formats. Can
I use it similarly as xls2csv in the example above?
