Sometimes when listening to music someone asks me which music this is. To not need to look the song up, copy the title and paste it to the Mumble client I open a terminal, type m-psi-playername and the person who asked me can look it up on my web page :) One could also bind this functionality to a key shortcut.

One needs to create a file with all needed shell functions and then “source” this file in his shell configuration (for example .bashrc). Then one creates the file '.psi-settings.conf' in his home directory.

Listing to Clementine Music Player you now only need to run in a terminal: <source lang=“bash”> m-psi-clementine </source>

Following players are currently supported: * moc * Clementine Music Player * MPD * Amarok

See on GitHub: https://github.com/Natenom/shell-scripts/blob/master/psi/get_current_song.sh.

Each of those functions gets the current played song and then runs the shell function m-psi with the filename as an argument.

See on GitHub: https://github.com/Natenom/shell-scripts/blob/master/psi/push_current_song.sh.

An example .psi-settings.conf can be found on GitHub: https://github.com/Natenom/shell-scripts/blob/master/psi/.psi-settings.conf.
