List available optional features

$ ./configure --help

Auto-detect everything

$ ./configure

To disable some feature, arts for example, and install to $HOME run

$ ./configure prefix=$HOME CONFIG_ARTS=n

After running configure you can see from the generated config.mk file what features have been configured in (see the CONFIG_* options).

Note: For some distributions you need to install development versions of the dependencies. For example if you want to use 'mad' input plugin (mp3) you need to install libmad0-dev (Debian) or libmad-devel (RPM) package. After installing dependencies you need to run ./configure again, of course.

If you want to use the Tremor library as alternative for decoding Ogg/Vorbis files you have to pass CONFIG_TREMOR=y to the configure script:

$ ./configure CONFIG_VORBIS=y CONFIG_TREMOR=y

The Tremor library is supposed to be used on hardware that has no FPU.

$ make

Or on some BSD systems you need to explicitly use GNU make:

$ gmake

$ make install

Or to install to a temporary directory:

$ make install DESTDIR=~/tmp/cmus

This is useful when creating binary packages.

Remember to replace make with gmake if needed.

$ man cmus-tutorial

And

$ man cmus

The list is open but moderated (you can post to the list without subscribing but it's not recommended because I have to accept each email from non-subscribed users). Traffic of the list is extremely low. Please use the issues page for any problems, suggestions, or bug reports.

After a crash send bug report with last lines of ~/cmus-debug.txt to [email protected]. The file exists only if you configured cmus with maximum debug level (./configure DEBUG=2).

$ git clone https://github.com/cmus/cmus.git

cmus uses the Linux kernel coding style. Use hard tabs. Tabs are always 8 characters wide. Keep the style consistent with rest of the code.

Use git format-patch to generate patches from your commits. Alternatively you can use diff -up if you don't want to use git.
