THE SECRET GIG
version 8 edition 3
-- see news
for changes
oggvorbis
, and wav
track are
officially supported in version 8 edition 0.
shell script monk-ogg-probe is deprecated.
now monk-fn-handler.el
enabling emacs to open multimedia files by normal
find-file
commands is a part of MonK archive as well (refer to
readme).
thus, current officially-supported tracks are:
now local RealMedia files can be read into a MonK track by beta track generator monk-real.el, which requires trplayer-1.2.0. trplayer should be patched to probe a RealMedia file from MonK (see the bottom of this page for the track generator, and the patch). I don't know if trplayer-1.2.0 can be compiled now, though.
you can use mpg321 as mp3 player instead of mpg123, but you should change your setup (refer to readme).
MonK runs on emacs-20.7/21.x, mule-2.3(19.28|19.34) without any moronic library, but perhaps won't run on xemacs.
xmcd-3.x seems to have deprecated
now jumping / looping operation is possible for mpg (mpeg video) tracks
from 7.16.
see news.
when you make [mode-line c-drag-mouse-2] in emacs-21.x (since emacs-21.0.10[0-5]),
you should make vertical move as well
-- which means you should drag diagonally up or down
until the pointer shape changes.
These emacs-21.x'es do not generate `drag' modifier
if the mode-line is dragged horizontally.
guess this is one of those bugs of the version of emacs.
from version 7, the archive includes a module monk-watch.el
which provides a new minor mode `monk-watch-directory-mode'. also
track sorting (from 7.6) and track marking (from 7.7-7.11) facilities added.
from version 6 edition 14, C-c I (monk-write-id3-info) is available in
monk-prop-edit-mode and in monk-mode. you need
id3tool-1.1f (or later).
the interactive monk-the-ripper is not yet included in the archive,
but is put over there. it works in an independent *monk*ripper*
buffer. it's just working, without any fancy messaging, eg., timer
does not show correct percentage of ripping.
load it, then m-x monk-ripper ret while cdaudio tracks are
shown. hitting ret starts the ripping from the track upon point.
monk-ripper.el (monk-ripper-version: 0.10)
monk-real.el (monk-real-version: 0.1)
requiring
trplayer-1.2.0-monk.diff.gz.
