[NEW] gtk2mp

gtk2mp is a gtk based client for MPD, the Music Player Daemon. If you want a graphical frontend for MPD and for some reason do not want to install any gnome packages this is good enough

Re: [NEW] gtk2mp

please use glurp if you don't want the horrible gmpc, but don't use gtk2mp it hasnt been maintained over a year. it also has many bugs, and doesnt support alot of feature that mpd is offering. non-visual as visual.

This is also said on the musicpd website.

edit2: I will try to make the next version of gmpc depend optinally on gnome-vfs and therefor make it compile with less dependencies.

Re: [NEW] gtk2mp

if you select "for artist" in the combo box, you can search for artist,

also in the browse by artist:

you can press ctrl-f and do a search, (press up or down to go to the next/prev hit) this is a gtk function, and it works in gmpc in every treeview.

Re: [NEW] gtk2mp

by as in I meant "in glurp similar to the way you can search by artist in gmpc, which I am already aware of." But thank you. I get the impression you are a developer with the MPD project. You rock out.
