GNUMP3d on Windows
GNUMP3d was originally a Unix application, being written and tested upon GNU/Linux.
Since the project has started there have been those who've wanted to run it under Microsoft Windows platforms, without using anything like the Cygwin Unix emulation layer.
Thanks to it's Perl nature the code should be very portable, and able to run under most platforms; the trickiest issue is installation.
Installation
Installing under Windows in 4 easy steps:
- Download and install a recent version of Perl from ActiveState.
- Unzip the gnump3d-2.x.zip file; and move the extracted directory to C:\gnump3d2 - preserving any existing configuration file you might have.
- Make any changes to c:\gnump3d2\etc\gnump3d.conf.win.
- Run c:\gnump3d2\bin\gnump3d-index.bat once.
- Run 'C:\gnump3d\bin\run.bat', editing the location of your MP3s if necessary, (the script assumes your music is in C:\MP3), and enjoy.
