Ncmpcpp - output --now-playing only if it's not paused.

Hi. I'm writing things for my bar. I want ncmpcpp to cease to output on --now-playing if it is paused, or otherwise just need a way to check if ncmpcpp is playing or paused, but can't find any.

Ncmpcpp is a graphical front-end for mpd. mpc is the "official" command line interface to mpd. The default output already contains the information you need.
