Ok, to me this is crazy. And I'm not sure it will last but, as Pidsley says, this is a proof of concept.
Always looking for a reason not to leave Emacs during my daily activities, I got myself into
emms: Emacs Multimedia System.
What is this? Just another way for me to listen to my mp3s, this time straight inside Emacs. Let's go.
I got this in my init file:
Code: Select all
(require 'emms-setup)
(emms-standard)
(emms-default-players)
(setq emms-source-file-default-directory "~/music/")
Adjust the path accordingly, of course.
What I do now is adding the record I want to listen to to the emms playlist:
Almost there. Now go with:
And your playlist comes up. Refer to
this page for how to interact with the playlist. Or simply hit RET and enjoy your music.
So many other things you can do with emms. Check the
manual to learn more.
