%%short-description: Playlist manager
 
%%full-description: A generic playlist manager program that has been 
shown to work with mpg123, bplay, timidity,tracker, xmp, s3mod, and
should work with almost anything that can take a filename on the
command line. It automatically decides which player to use depending
on a  file's extension; the defaults are set in a config file, which can
be adjusted at both compile and run time. It uses
textual playlist files, which are easily generated with the 'find'
or'locate' utilities.

Xhippo will optionally integrate with the GNOME desktop, supporting
GNOME themes and drag-and-drop, and supports specific GTK themes
through its own gtkrc. Xhippo can optionally read the IDS tags MP3
files, and has randomisation features ensuring that you don't hear the
same song repeatedly. It has rudimentary supprt for both English and
German, and its playlists are compatible with XMMS and most other
sound players.
