What is it?

MOC is a console audio player with simple ncurses interface in playmp3list
style. Features:

	* Supports MP3, WAV, and OGG formats.
	* Play files from directory changing automatically to the next one
	  without any playlist.
	* Supports id3tag, VBR and Xing header for MP3.
	* Simple mixer.
	* Fast switching to your music directory.
	* Playlists (without read/write to a file).
	* Shuffle and repeat.
	* Changing process priority to higher value.
	* Playing in separate thread.
	

What software is required to compile it?
	* UNIX system with POSIX threads (Linux or FreeBSD with linuxthread
	  port)
	* ncueses (probably already installed in your system)
	* libao (http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/download/)
	* libvorbis - only for OGG (http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/download/)
	* libmad with libid3tag only for MP3 (ftp://ftp.mars.org/pub/mpeg/)
	* zlib for libid3tag - only MP3 (probably already installed in your
	  system)

What system is MOC running on?

I've tested it on Linux and FreeBSD.


How to install it?

Generic instalation instruction is included in the INSTALL file. In short, just
type:
	./configure
	make
And as root:
	make install

You can use config file, see comments in config.example how to do it.
Run program with the 'moc' command. If you need help, press 'h'.

If you use FreeBSD, you may have to run configure in this way:
./configure LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include


What is version checker?

It is a funny mechanism to check for a new version of MOC and see what has
changed. Just press 'V' to see how it works, the programm will connect to
moc.daper.net, check for a new version, and display message.
MOC will remind you of pressing 'V' every 31 days, if you don't like it, you
can turn it off by setting Reminder = 0 in the config file or by compiling MOC
with --disable-version-checker.
