# zuke

A music player for Plan 9.

![screenshot](zuke.jpg)

With some stuff one expects from a music player:

 * gapless playback
 * seeking
 * playlists
 * good metadata support

## Installing

```
cd /tmp && \
hget https://github.com/ftrvxmtrx/libtags/archive/master.tar.gz | tar xz && \
cd libtags-master && mk install && cd ../.. && \
hget https://github.com/ftrvxmtrx/zuke/archive/master.tar.gz | tar xz && \
cd zuke-master && mk install
```

Zuke comes with two programs.  One is `audio/zuke`, which is the player
itself.  The other one is `audio/mkplist`, it's used to make playlists
that are then fed to `audio/zuke`'s stdin:

```
% audio/mkplist /n/somefs/mymusic > $home/somefs.plist
% audio/zuke < $home/somefs.plist
```

Of course, one can combine these steps into one:

```
% audio/mkplist /n/music | audio/zuke
```
