Draai is a wrapper around mpc, making playing music from the commandline more
enjoyable. mpc is a client for MPD, the Music Player Daemon. Using draai,
one can play an audiofile (ogg, mp3, flac, whatever your MPD offers), play all
files in a predefined playlist, view details on current, past and future playing
songs, skip to the next song, etc.
Main differences with mpc: draai supports smooth fadeouts, draai can be used as
an alarmclock, draai supports rescheduling a track as the upcoming track, draai
offers fancy status windows. The author uses draai for doing DJ sets in clubs.
The interface is purely command-line. No fancy gui's whatsoever. Not even
curses. Draai consists of just one simple zsh shell script, calling mpc.
Actually, I don't expect many more than one or two users of draai. The
interface is very much tweaked to my own personal taste. Furthermore, there
are a zillion alternatives for draai; everybody seems to be writing her own
playlist manager.
PACKAGES
========
If you're using a Debian, Devuan or Ubuntu system, install draai by executing
# apt update && apt install draai
(Debian ships draai since the "squeeze" release.)
There might be draai packages available from non-gnu.uvt.nl too; try:
# echo "deb http://non-gnu.uvt.nl/debian sid draai" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
# aptitude update
# curl http://non-gnu.uvt.nl/debian/uvt_key.asc | apt-key add -
# aptitude update && aptitude install draai
to install it from there.
If you're running Arch or Manjaro, for now you'd have to build draai
yourself using tools like aurutils, yay, yaourt, pacaur or similar ones.
E.g. do
$ aur sync draai
Once it's build, you should be able to install it by running
# pacman -S draai
. See https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/draai and
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=draai . Thanks SCHAPiE

INSTALLATION
============
For instructions for installation using the tarball (i.e.: not binary packages),
see the file INSTALL.
Special installation information for zsh users:
Draai comes with a zsh completion function, by default installed in
/usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions. Make sure this directory is in your
$fpath. If it isn't, you might want to add
_sitecompdir=/usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions
[[ -z $fpath[(r)$_sitecompdir] ]] && fpath=($fpath $_sitecompdir)
to your ~/.zshrc.
Run compinit after installation of draai.
USAGE
=====
After installation, running
$ man draai
(or "$ draai --help") gives information on the usage of the draai command-line
tool.

WHAT OUR USERS SAY
==================
As heard once on irc meuknet/#uvt: < jiggel> osjittisstil <- beste naam van een
commandline optie die ik in lange tijd gezien heb :)
HISTORY
=======
The first draai implementation, probably from about 2001, consisted of a bunch
of zsh shell functions. The second draai implementation was in python, calling
ogg123 and mpg321. The first implementation which never made it was in python,
using python-pyvorbis, python-id3 and python-pymad. The second implementation
which never made it was in python, using python-mpdclient / py-libmpdclient.
The current draai implementation, around since 2007, is a zsh shell script,
calling mpc.
