NAME

   xmms2-launcher - XMMS2 daemon launcher

SYNOPSIS

   xmms2-launcher [-l file] [-P file] [-v] [--] [XMMS2D_OPTION] ...
   xmms2-launcher -h

DESCRIPTION

   XMMS2 is a redesign of the XMMS (http://legacy.xmms2.org) music player.
   It  features   a   client-server   model,   allowing   multiple   (even
   simultaneous!)  user interfaces, both textual and graphical. All common
   audio formats are supported using plugins. On top of this, there  is  a
   flexible media library to organise your music.

   xmms2-launcher  starts xmms2d(1) in the background. The main feature is
   that it does not exit until the  IPC  system  of  XMMS2  is  available,
   meaning   that  as  soon  as  the  xmms2-launcher  process  has  exited
   successfully xmms2d(1) is ready to accept commands.
