My custom ncmpcpp visualizers

I was bored with ncmpcpp's default visualizers so I decided to fork ncmpcpp and make my own.

Ellipse visualizer - inspired by consolecandy

I've also colored the original visualizers

The code is available here, and the original coloring code can be found from this pull request. I haven't tested it anywhere but my own box, so I can't guarantee it will work perfectly on every machine.

Re: My custom ncmpcpp visualizers

I just compiled your fork, it works fine.
How do you enable the colours?

Re: My custom ncmpcpp visualizers

Make sure you configure with the correct flags

./configure --enable-clock --enable-unicode --without-iconv --enable-outputs --enable-visualizer --with-curl --with-taglib
make
./src/ncmpcpp

Re: My custom ncmpcpp visualizers

The problem was the name of the option, it's visualizer_color instead of visualizer_colors (as the github link says).
