----------------------------

The homepage of gmp3 is http://zuel.ksirc.org/gmp3/.

The following text is a part of /usr/doc/gmp3/README.gz.
I think, it will get you started. Refer to that file
to get more information.

New Users Guide

Gmp3 itself is designed to be fairly easy to use.  The first thing that
should be noted when first starting the player is that the default theme is
rather minimalist.  In order to access any of Gmp3's features, right-click
on the panel.  This will pop up a menu from which you can make selections.

The playlist system is (hopefully) fairly simple and intuitive.  There are
two main objects, the Albums and the Active Playlist.  The Albums are
essentially a database of songs that can be catagorized to your needs.  The
Active Playlist contains a list of all the songs queued up to be played.  To
add songs to the Active Playlist, select the various songs from the album,
right-click, and select "Add to Playlist".  You may also add songs directly
to the playlist by clicking in the playlist widget, right-clicking, and
selecting "Add Song(s)...".  This is the same method you would use to add
songs to an album.  To remove songs from an album or the playlist,
select the songs, right-click in the list, and select "Remove Song(s)..."

Essentially, all operations which can be done on albums or songs are
available by right-clicking in the appropriate list.
