It is also possible to define a list of ## alternatives by providing several groups and separating them with '|', ## e.g. '{%t}|{%f}' will be evaluated to 'TITLE' or 'FILENAME' if the former is ## not present. ## ## Note: If you want to set limit on maximal length of a tag, just put the ## appropriate number between % and character that defines tag type, e.g. to ## make album take max. 20 terminal cells, use '%20b'. ## ## In addition, formats support markers used for text attributes. They are ## followed by character '$'. After that you can put: ## ## - 0 - default window color (discards all other colors) ## - 1 - black ## - 2 - red ## - 3 - green ## - 4 - yellow ## - 5 - blue ## - 6 - magenta ## - 7 - cyan ## - 8 - white ## - 9 - end of current color ## - b - bold text ## - u - underline text ## - r - reverse colors ## - a - use alternative character set ## ## If you don't want to use a non-color attribute anymore, just put it again, ## but this time insert character '/' between '$' and attribute character, ## e.g. {$b%t$/b}|{$r%f$/r} will display bolded title tag or filename with ## reversed colors. ## ## If you want to use 256 colors and/or background colors in formats (the naming ## scheme is described below in section about color definitions), it can be done ## with the syntax $(COLOR), e.g. to set the artist tag to one of the ## non-standard colors and make it have yellow background, you need to write ## $(197_yellow)%a$(end).

Available attributes are: ## ## - r - column will be right aligned ## - E - if tag is empty, empty tag marker won't be displayed ## ## You can also: ## ## - give a column custom name by putting it after attributes, separated with ## character ':', e.g. {lr:Length} gives you right aligned column of lengths ## named "Length". ## ## - define sequence of tags, that have to be displayed in case predecessor is ## empty in a way similar to the one in classic song format, i.e. using '|' ## character, e.g. {a|c|p:Owner} creates column named "Owner" that tries to ## display artist tag and then composer and performer if previous ones are not ## available. ## song_columns_list_format = (15)[magenta]{a} (50)[white]{t|f:Title} (7f)[blue]{l} ##### various settings ##### ## Note: Custom command that will be executed each time song changes.

To find out if the ## terminal supports 256 colors, run ncmpcpp and check out the bottom of the ## help screen for list of available colors and their numerical values. ## ## What is more, there are two special values for the background color: ## "transparent" and "current". The first one explicitly sets the background to ## be transparent, while the second one allows you to preserve current ## background color and change only the foreground one. It's used implicitly ## when background color is not specified. ## ## Moreover, it is possible to attach format information to selected color ## variables by appending to their end a colon followed by one or more format ## flags, e.g. black:b or red:ur.
