playless
a command line mp3 player written for mksh. (bash compatible too)
...It extends single file mp3 players so that you can organize playlists and search for tracks in your default pager.
WHY? I don't know. I just wanted to see how far I could go with mksh and ksh93.
playless supports building/saving/loading playlists, shuffle mode, normal mode, jumping to track, listing tracks loaded and basic functions (back stop play next)
it's ksh93 compatible, which means it will work with mksh and bash. It will not work with pdksh, due to lack of array support.
note: that original versions of ksh93 supported only 4096 elements. modern implementations don't have this limit.
