Version: 2.2

Herrie is a minimalistic music player that uses the command line. It is written to support a variety of operating systems, audio subsystems and file formats, including playlists.

Usage, see docs or http://herrie.info/herrie.1

Usage is a little difficult, but after learning some shortcuts, it's a nice one.

Compiled and tested in 4.31 but 'should' also work in other puppies.

I couldn't find anything on their website but can play streaming music like Orpheus?

hi trapster,

it is only able to submit your tracks to last.fm.

the features of orpheus look nice. i'll download it and give it a try.

@trapster

after examining it again: it is able to play streams, some of them.

How to:

1. in Herrie type 'C' to change directory. Now you could type in the address of a stream.
2. Return for input
3. 'a' for add to playlist and
4. 'x' to play the item.

For me it (only) works with mp3-streams, no ogg/m3u/pls (but i did not investigate very much).

Thank you!! Very nice program once you learn a few controls. And start with -x.
