## Overview

`xmms-pulse` is an `XMMS` output plugin for the PulseAudio sound server.

## Current Status

There's currently no configuration dialog. Use `$PULSE_SERVER` and `$PULSE_SINK` to change the default output sinks.

## Documentation

There is not much to say. Just install this software, the driver will then be available in XMMS.

## Requirements

Currently, `xmms-pulse` is tested on Linux only.

`xmms-pulse` was developed and tested on Debian GNU/Linux "testing" from July 2004, it should work on most other Linux distributions (and maybe Unix versions) since it uses GNU autoconf for source code configuration.

Obviously `xmms-pulse` requires an installation of PulseAudio (version 0.9.x) and `xmms` (version 1.2.10 works, earlier versions probably as well).

## Installation

As this package is made with the GNU autotools you should run `./configure` inside the distribution directory for configuring the source tree. After that you should run `make` for compilation and `make install` (as root) for installation of `xmms-pulse`.

Make sure to have XMMS's development package `xmms-dev` installed and the script `xmms-config` in your `$PATH` before configuring the source code.
