APC(1) General Commands Manual APC(1)

apcaudio player client

apc [command [arguments ...]]

The apc utility connects to aps(1) and sends the given commands, printing their output (with the exception of the status line which, if ‘ok’, is suppressed.)

A command passed as arguments to apc is processed as described in Caret Handling, if no command is given as an argument, apc reads commands from the standard input until EOF occurs.

If caret (‘^’) is the first character that appears in the final argument given to apc, it is removed. If there are no more characters in the argument, the argument is replaced by arguments taken from the standard input, one per line, until EOF is encountered. (It is an error to have no arguments from stdin in this case.)

The path to the socket used to connect to aps(1). If apsock is not set, /tmp/aps is used.

The apc utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

Sort the items in the queue:

$ apc list | sort | apc truncate ^

Reorder items matching ‘regex’ to come next in the queue:

$ apc remove /regex | apc add ^

Add ‘^caret’ to the queue:

$ apc add ^^caret
