Hello,

I've just finished a simple project of mine to replace cmus with something a
bit more UNIXy and I think it could interest some people.

Here's the link: https://repo.or.cz/mus.git with an excerpt from the README:

+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|         Overview                                                              
   |
|         --------                                                              
   |
|

| A well designed and easy to modify music player I made for myself. It only    
   |
| supports FLAC and GNU/Linux, out of the box.                                  
   |
|                                                                               
   |
| Formed of three independant parts:                                            
   |
|     * mus_server.sh:  play albums from a playlist and answer commands from 
the   |
|                       client                                                  
   |
|     * mus_client.sh:  send commands to the server and receive its answers     
   |
|                       read or modify the playlist based on stdin              
   |
|     * mus_album-*:    fairly pick random albums (see fair_shuf/README)        
   |
|

| A lemonbar status script can be found at 
https://repo.or.cz/q3cpma-lemonbar.git. |

The main drawbacks for now are that it's Linux only because it depends on flock
(there's a more portable version at [1]) and inotify (could be replaced either
by [2] or a simple polling loop).
