# cmushnotify
A simple shell script for showing notifications for [cmus - the C* Music Player](https://cmus.github.io/).

### Dependencies
* libnotify + a notification server
* ffmpeg (optional, for embedded album art)
### Installation
Clone the repository or just download `cmushnotify` and make it executable:
```bash
chmod a+x cmushnotify
```
Optionally, you may want to move it to one of the directories in your `PATH` environment variable.
In cmus, set `cmushnotify` as status display program typing the following command:
```
:set status_display_program=[/PATH/TO/YOUR/SCRIPT/]cmushnotify
```
If you are already using another script as your status display program in cmus, follow the instructions at [cmus wiki](https://github.com/cmus/cmus/wiki/status-display-programs#usage--installation) on how to use multiple programs.
