now-playing-d NAME now-playing-d - display text from stdin in the notification area. DESCRIPTION now-playind-d reads from stdin. Whenever a full new line is read, this text is displayed in the notification area (replacing any text now-playing-d put there before, if any). Careful not to make the lines too long for your notification area. BUILDING make INSTALLING To install to ~/bin: make install or just copy now-playing-d wherever you like USAGE Here's an example of how to make it so you can "echo" text to it from scripts: mkfifo ~/tmp/now-playing while true; do cat ~/tmp/now-playing; done | now-playing-d echo 'Hello, world!' > ~/tmp/now-playing sleep 2 echo 'another message' > ~/tmp/now-playing LICENSING This program is licensed under the GNU GPLv3+.
