Description Mark Saward 2002-11-07 07:01:53 UTC 
Version:           2.1.3 (using KDE 3.0.9)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.19

It would be very useful (I would say necessary) for noatun to have command line controls for skipping, pausing, stopping, playing, etc.  Eg:

noatun --stop to stop playing current song.

This would allow me to bind multimedia keys on my keyboard to control noatun.  I currently do this with xmms.

Noatun already can be controlled using the DCOP interface.   You can use  
commands like:  
   
dcop noatun Noatun play  
   
dcop noatun Noatun pause   
  
To send commands to Noatun.  Use the 'kdcop' tool to see what's available in  
noatun's DCOP interface.
