NAME
xmms2-launcher - XMMS2 daemon launcher
SYNOPSIS
xmms2-launcher [ -? / --help ]
xmms2-launcher [ -l logfile / --logfile= logfile] [ -P pidfile /
--pidfile= pidfile] [ --verbose ]
DESCRIPTION
XMMS2 is a redesign of the XMMS (http://www.xmms.org) 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.
xmms2-launcher includes command line options to change the way in which
the daemon is invoked.
These options are currently recognised:
-l logfile / --logfile=logfile
Write log file to logfile instead of the default log file
location
- P pidfile / --pidfile=pidfile
Write the pid of xmms2d to the file specified by pidfile
--verbose
Increases the vebosity of xmms2-launcher
-? / --help
Show help options
FILES
$XDG_CACHE_HOME/xmms2/xmms2d.log
The default location for a file where the log output of
xmms2d(1) is redirected. Usually ~/.cache/xmms2/xmms2d.log.
