+ | ===== EMPC ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | EMPC is a client for MPD written using EFL. Its focus is speed-of-use and minimalism. It does not support other media playing backends. | ||
+ | |||
+ | For most delicious taste, set MPD_HOST environment variable to the path of mpd's local socket. Also ensure your user has access to this socket. | ||

+ | Controls: | ||
+ | |||
+ | The UI of EMPC is based on mouse movements and event areas. Moving the mouse to an area of the application window will trigger a change in the view state. Unless the current view has been mouse-hold toggled or keyboard toggled using a global hotkey, it will automatically hide after HIDE_TIMEOUT seconds. | ||

+ | Hints for available navigation appear when the view changes: | ||
+ | blue indicates a new view is available in a direction | ||
+ | red indicates the previous view is available in a direction | ||

+ | Mouse bindings for the player view and event area sizes can be changed using the defines at the top of empc.edc. | ||
