mpd_info_screen/README.md

mpd info screen

A Rust program that displays info about the currently running MPD server.

The window shows albumart (may be embedded in the audio file, or is a "cover.jpg" in the same directory as the song file), a "time-remaining" counter, and the filename currently being played
