Hi,

Sorry for delay.

Are you still planning to use Savannah?  If not, please tell

Description:

nCroK is meant to combine the minimalist console interface of ncurses with many of the features of an excessively featured player like amarok. Linux is overburdened with bloated music players and many of the light-weight ones are only light because they lack features. High priority features include the ability to search and sort efficiently in libraries assumed to be in excess of 30,000 tracks. This is where database driven players die in spectacular flames. Other than sorting and searching, the 'playlist' is to be the entire library, with the ability to go through the list and queue tracks (and stops, like in amarok).

The project is being written in C++ with an ncurses interface, gstreamer output, and taglib to read tag data.

This is a project for a music control class (I can get course credit for this?!). As such, I may end up adding a network client to it (to further satisfy the prof). I've wanted to write this app for a long time, due to my dissatisfaction with the state of linux music players, and now I finally have a deadline to reach RC state: Dec 2.

The machine that has the code as it stands is in the middle of some data recovery and is off. It doesn't do much yet, just a playlist in a window that plays a song when you hit enter over it. No menu's, minimal controls. I was hoping to get to use git on savannah so I don't have to be manually copying my latest release from desktop to laptop and vice versa depending on whether I'm at home or school. The playlist storage scheme is also looking to change. I just used std::vector temporarily to get the rest of the project going, so a lot is still changing. I give you a really exciting tarball until I can use that machine again (tomorrowish)
