revengeMusic

Written in C++

A command line music program for linux, Designed not to play two tracks at once and to be easily used in shell programs, this way key shortcuts and option flags could allow a user to find a creative uses, I intend to release a gui mode and sound file search and create a music program with similar implementation to rofi.
