-EMMS --- The Emacs Multi-Media System                -*-outline-*-
-=====================================
-
-
-* Introduction, Overview
-========================
-
-EMMS is the Emacs Multi-Media System.  It tries to be a clean and
-small application to play multimedia files from Emacs using external
-players.  Many of its ideas are derived from MpthreePlayer
-(http://www.nongnu.org/mp3player), but it tries to be more general and
-more clean.
-
-   The basic functionality of Emms consists of three parts: The core,
-the sources, and the players.
-
-   The core resides in `emms.el', and provides a simple playlist and
-the basic functionality to use all the other features of Emms.  It
-provides the common user commands and interfaces for other parts.  It
-thinks in tracks, where a track is the combination of a type and a
-name--e.g., the track type 'file has a name that is the file name.
-Other track types are possible.
-
-   To get to tracks, the core needs sources.  The file
-`emms-source-file.el' provides simple sources to interact with the
-file system.
-
-   When Emms finally has the sources in the playlist, it needs a
-player to play them.  `emms-player-simple.el' defines a few useful
-players, and allows you to define your own in a very simple way.
-
-   The way Emms works is easy to customize with your own code or by
-using `M-x customize RET'.
-
-
-* Installation
-==============
-
-You need to put all the .el files of EMMS in a directory in your
-load-path.  For example, if you put all those files into
-~/elisp/emms/, then in your ~/.emacs you should do:
-
-(add-to-list 'load-path "~/elisp/emms/")
-
-For information about compiling Emms into byte-code see the
-``Compiling Emms'' section in the Emms manual.
-
-** Setup
---------
-After adding the location of the Emms code to the load-path variable,
-we invoke the following using the `emms-setup' feature which allows
-for quick and simple Emms setup.
-
-     (require 'emms-setup)
-     (emms-standard)
-     (emms-default-players)
-
-After which Emms is set up and ready to go!
-
-   For more information about different setup levels and features see
-the ``Simple Setup'' section of the Emms manual.
-
-** Usage
---------
-The basic functionality of EMMS is just to play music without being
-noticed.  It provides a few commands to skip the current track and
-such, but otherwise, it doesn't show up.  EMMS provides the following
-basic user commands (that you might want to bind to keys):
-
-emms-start ...... Start playing the current playlist
-emms-stop ....... Stop playing
-emms-next ....... Go to the next track in the playlist
-emms-previous ... Go to the previous track in the playlist
-emms-shuffle .... Shuffle the playlist
-emms-show ....... What is playing?
-
-But before you can use these, you need a playlist to start with.  The
-following commands allow you to create a playlist from different
-sources:
-
-emms-play-file ............. Play a single file
-emms-play-directory ........ Play a whole directory
-emms-play-directory-tree ... Play a directory tree
-
-
-* The Interactive Playlist buffer
-=================================
-
-Emms provides a visual, interactive playlist mode as well as the
-ability to use playlists without ever looking at them.  This visual,
-interactive mode is called the `emms-playlist-mode' and is defined in
-`emms-playlist-mode.el'.
-
-   To use the interactive playlist invoke: `M-x emms-playlist-mode-go
-RET'
-
-   When in the interactive playlist mode we can perform different
-actions on the current playlist.  Here are some basic commands:
-
-`n'....Start playing the next track in the playlist.
-
-`p'....Start playing the previous track in the playlist.
-
-`s'....Stop playing.
-
-`f'....Describe the currently playing track in the minibuffer.
-
-`c'....Display the current track in the center of the screen.
-
-`RET'..Start playing the track under point.  Note that this is also
-       available with `Mouse-2'.
-
-`q'....Put the interactive playlist buffer at the end of the list of
-       all buffers (i.e., bury it).
-
-As always, for more commands see the mode documentation and the
-``Interactive Playlists'' section of the Emms manual.
-
-
-* Bare Bones Setup
-==================
-
-The following code fragment provides a minimal EMMS setup without
-using the layer of `emms-default'.  It can maybe be used to better
-understand the internals of EMMS.  You can see how EMMS needs to know
-about players (these are defined in `emms-player-simple') and about
-sources for tracks (trivial file system based sources, such as this
-`emms-directory-tree', are defined in `emms-source-file').
-
-(require 'emms-player-simple)
-(require 'emms-source-file)
-(require 'emms-source-playlist)
-(setq emms-player-list '(emms-player-mpg321
-                         emms-player-ogg123
-                         emms-player-mplayer))
-
-
-* Advanced configuration
-========================
-
-** Seeking
-----------
-In most multimedia players, you can seek forward or backward in a
-track.  EMMS supports this too.  If you're using mplayer, check that
-`emms-player-mplayer-parameters' contains ``slave''.  If you're using
-mpg321, there is a module called emms-player-mpg321-remote.el.  To use
-it, simply add the following lines to your configuration:
-
-(require 'emms-player-mpg321-remote)
-(push 'emms-player-mpg321-remote emms-player-list)
-
-Finally, if you are using mpd, no special config is needed.
-
-   Seeking works through the following functions:
-
-`emms-seek' which takes a negative or positive amount of seconds.
-`emms-seek-forward' which seeks ten seconds forward.
-`emms-seek-backward' which seeks ten seconds backward.
-
-
-* Using libtag for reading tags
-===============================
-
-There is a way to read tags using Libtag as your backend for
-emms-info.  However, since it requires a binary file (source code
-provided with EMMS), it isn't enabled by default.  To compile it, type
-``make emms-print-metadata''.  To install it, either put
-emms-print-metadata in your $PATH, or add EMMS' directory to Emacs'
-exec-path.  Since libtag overwrites most of the usual methods for
-providing info, it's best to keep it as the only function in
-`emms-info-functions'.  Here's a way to do so:
-
-(require 'emms-info-libtag)
-(setq emms-info-functions '(emms-info-libtag))
-
-
-* EMMS, Emms, emms, or what?
-============================
-
-In various contexts, this program is called EMMS, Emms or emms.  Those
-are all correct, and which one you use is a matter of personal
-preference.  EMMS highlights the acronym character of the name.  Emms
-is akin to Emacs and Gnus, ignoring that Emms is pronounced
-ee-em-em-es, and not a single name.  emms is highlighting that emms is
-a case-sensitive file name and Emacs Lisp command.
-
-
-* Getting help
-==============
-
-Emms has a mailing list at emms-help@gnu.org.  To subscribe to it,
-visit http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emms-help.  If you are
-familiar with the Gmane service, there is a Gmane newsgroup which
-mirrors this mailing address at gmane.emacs.emms.user.
-
-   Emms also has a website at <http://www.gnu.org/software/emms/>.
