Practical Music Search is an ncurses-based client for MPD. It has a command line interface much like Vim, and supports custom colors, layouts, and key bindings. PMS aims to be accessible and highly configurable.
$ cmake . && make && sudo make install
You need to have MPD installed and working before using PMS, but not neccessarily on the same machine.
This client works best with recent MPD versions (>= 0.15.0).
PMS depends on the following libraries:
- ncurses (>= 5.0)
- glib2 (>= 2.0)
- boost_regex (>= 1.36.0) to enable regular expression searches
