Use divider files to organize albums in XMMS
Authored by: vlipper on Mar 24, '04 03:56:49PM

nice tip for those of us using XMMS. However, why post this on Mac OS X Hints? Isn't there a site for Linux that gathers hints?

Vlipper,

XMMS runs quite well on OS X, if you are using X11. You can get XMMS installed on OS X using the Fink installer found at Sourceforge.

XMMS has smaller footprint than iTunes

XMMS can be easily installed for OS X via Fink. I frequently use XMMS in lieu of iTunes for performance reasons. This may not be so much of an issue on newer machines, but on my G3 350, iTunes normally uses 20 - 25 % of my CPU time, while XMMS just uses 5 - 10 %.
