FreeBSD on only TTY as a Daily Driver

[balanga]

I spend much of my time in text mode, usually in an Xterm under LXDE and am climbing the learning cliff of emacs, although I've recently found it is less steep in doom emacs. tmux is something I wish had come across ten years ago rather than relatively recently.

One thing I would like to find is a good text mode program for playing music. I have mpg123, but would like to have something which handles more formats. Any recommendations?

I came across https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MusicPlayers

but have yet to work out how to this integrated into emacs .

There is audio/emms on the port.

I use audio/cmus for music and textproc/pdfgrep for reading PDFs.

Apparently C-h v auto-mode-alist shows a list of mappings

Further info....

I need to add this to my config.el

(add-to-list 'dired-guess-shell-alist-user
             '("\\.mp3\\'" "mpg123"))

But I don't know how to invoke it.

and textproc/pdfgrep for reading PDFs.

As part of Project Glass, I am looking at trying to port MuPDF to render directly in the libdrm terminal framebuffer (will be so great for a terminal LaTeX workflow!).

Even though it is the simplest PDF viewer I can find, it is bloody over-engineered. Can't a pdf library just give me a raster bitmap to render?!

You can find Sox as the backend in alot of GUI programs. You can easily play music with it from the command line. It is "The Swiss Army Knife" of sound..

Pulseaudio and Pipewire can send to airplay receiver. Don't known if the iPhone can be configured as aiplay receiver...

Had a look at xpdf?

I guess I am still a little bitter at the move from xpdf3/Motif to xpdf4/Qt but I don't find the code particularly great.

Specifically libpoppler (which is the backend pdf capability of xpdf isolated). But now that you have suggested it, I will take a look at an older version and see if the code is better.
