Re: Just one question
It's mentioned in the documentation. ;)
I'd been thinking it would be fun, and then I started using alsaplayer which then couldn't play songs randomly, so I wrote a program to reorder the lines in playlists randomly.
When I'd done that, I had practically written a bogosort, so I decided to finnish it.
Also I just wanted to learn more about automake, autoconf, and writing infomanuals and manpages.
Just one question
*why?*
:) I approve nonetheless!
