Pygmy, a GTK+ client for the Music Player Daemon (MPD)
Copyright 2005 Andrew Conkling <andrewski@fr.st>

For information on MPD, please see http://musicpd.org.  Their wiki is also a great resource: http://mpd.wikicities.com

This client is considered beta software.  Not everything works as expected and you may get some errors.  (Of course, because it's MPD, you can close Pygmy and restart without stopping your music.)  If you encounter errors, please send messages with bugs/errors (tracebacks please!), suggestions, or code (of course!) to the pygmy-dev mailing list: pygmy-dev@lists.berlios.de

Installation:
In the pygmy directory, run 'python setup.py install --prefix=/path' (where 'path' is '/usr' or '/usr/share', usually).  If you're able and willing to create various distribution packages/build scripts, please let me know so I can put them on the website.

Usage tips:
1. Pygmy tries to connect to a default MPD on localhost:6600.  If you have a different connection, configure it in the preferences the first time you open Pygmy.
2. 'Stop after current' can be accessed by right-clicking on the Stop button.  It will only work while Pygmy is running.
3. 'Update' can be run by right-clicking on the status image in the bottom right of the playlist toolbar.
4. You can seek in a song by clicking on the progress bar.  It is not (yet) draggable.
5. You can search your MPD library by pressing Ctrl+F in the Playlist Manager.  To clear the search results and return to the library base directory, click the 'Jump to' image at the upper-left.

TODO (order subject to change upon request or contribution):
	Nextest milestone:
		Retain selection after DnD
		Draggable progress bar
		Handle loss of system tray (i.e. prevent Pygmy from crashing)
	Nexter milestone:
		Keyboard shortcuts (DE-independent way?)
		Tabs in Bantu (library/playlists/streams)
        Playlist file support
        Stream support
        Make Pygmy session-aware
        Documentation (how to implement this in the UI??)
    Later:
        Album view!
        Option to have columns/allow sorting in playlist
        Basically, a lot of attention on making Bantu flippin' sweet.
	Misc:
		implement "metadata_to_use" after shank commits that upstream
		Icon to show playing song
		Icons in playlist manager
		Multiple orderable columns in the playlist: http://www.aeolia.org/mpd/sort.py.txt
		Convert to UIManager (Gazpacho)
		    Make system tray menu dynamic?
