Fetching lyrics in the command line

Objective: Print the lyrics for the current playing song.

How: We'll create a small bash script to do the fetching for us (using curl) and then we'll display it either in the terminal or in our $EDITOR

Get the current song

First we'll need to get the name of the current song and its artist:

chanux

#!/usr/bin/env python
from sys import argv, exit
from os import path
import datetime

if len(argv) == 5:
    (script, inputf, outputf, sign, msec) = argv
else:
    print "fixsrt <input.srt> <output.srt> <+/-> <milli seconds>"
    exit(1)

sfate

#!/usr/bin/env bash
curl https://s3.amazonaws.com/heroku-jvm-buildpack-vi/vim-7.3.tar.gz --output vim.tar.gz
mkdir vim && tar xzvf vim.tar.gz -C vim
export PATH=$PATH:/app/vim/bin

Before you send an email to the Git developers' mailing list

If you are a normal Git user, and you have problems using Git, you can also try:

• Asking on the Git users' mailing list:
• Asking on http://stackoverflow.com or other Q&A forms
• Using IRC, ask for help on #git in the freenode network. If you have no IRC-client, you can use this web-based one.

If you believe you've found a bug in Git for Windows or msysGit (Windows-specific), first check their issue tracker to see if the problem has already been reported. If not, send a message to msysgit@googlegroups.com or visit the online forum version.
