Requirements

This script requires various tools to work.

  • mikmod, opencp or audacious

Configuration

This script uses mikmod to play tunes by default, but you can override this and other settings with a .modarchiverc file located in $HOME directory. This is an example of .modarchiverc file to use audacious instead mikmod.
