cmus-scripts/scripts/aliases

# Here are some bash aliases from my .bashrc

# Using these aliases - I can control cmus from the terminal with a single short command, instead of "cmus-remote {parameters}" 
# From some of the commands, I also get some feedback from my "nowplay" script.
alias now='nowplay'							# call nowplay script
alias play='cmus-remote -p;nowplay'         # play a song and call nowplay to display the name of the current song
alias pause='cmus-remote -u'				# pause/resume
alias resume='cmus-remote -u;nowplay'		# pause/resume and call nowplay to display the name of the current song
alias stop='cmus-remote -s'					# stop playback
alias next='cmus-remote -n;nowplay'         # next track and nowplay to display the current song
alias prev='cmus-remote -r;nowplay'			# prev track and nowplay to display the current song
alias cmup='cmus-remote -v +10%'			# volume up by 10%
alias cmdown='cmus-remote -v -10%'			# volume down by 10%
alias cmaddl='cmus-remote -l'				# add items to the library e.g. cmaddl ~/Music/Kinasis/Divine\ Self\ Invention/  # would add my old bands album to the library
alias cmaddp='cmus-remote -P'				# add items to the currently selected playlist
#toggle shuffle/repeat and output whether shuffle is enabled or disabled
alias shuffle="cmus-remote -S; echo \"Shuffle: \$(cmus-remote -Q | \\grep shuffle | awk '{ print \$3 }')\""
alias repeat="cmus-remote -R; echo \"Repeat: \$(cmus-remote -Q | \\grep repeat | awk '{ print \$3 }')\""				# toggle repeat

# Shuffle function for cmus - alternative to the shuffle alias in the above section
# Toggle cmus's shuffle functionality and outputs the state
