Jamendo Lyrics is a lyrics script for Amarok audio player accessing the lyrics database for Jamendo.com music.

jamendAmarokLyrics is a lyrics plugin for Amarok that can fetch Lyrics from http://jamendo.com, where there is plenty of free creative commons music!

Local Lyrics is a python based amaroK-script requires amaroK 1.4!

I wrote simple wrappers for dcop-calls (using the shell-tool dcop), kdialog and amaroKs script system while writing this script. Use them if you want (its all LGPL) See the .tar.bz2s contense and: http://twoday.tuwien.ac.at/pub/stories/22759/

This lyrics-plugin simply scans a selected folder for textfiles with lyrics. This might be usefull when you have a lot of lyrics stored on your harddisc, but they are not available on lyrc.com.ar or a simmilar service.

Installation:

Open the lyrics-filesystem-x.x.amarokscript.tar.bz2 with amaroKs script managers script install option.

Usage:

Start the script with amaroKs script manager.
Select the directory in which the lyrics are stored.
The filenames of the lyrics have to be:

"artist - title.txt"
or
"title.txt"

Now amaroK will search this folder for lyrics, when there are none in its database for the current track.

Save Lyric script request lyric download (from http://lyrc.com.ar) and if succesfull save it into played mp3s directory.

Command Line Content Management System is my own command line content management system. Its not a dynamic cms, but a script that takes a source tree and creates a web site out of it.
The idea came to me when i was using m4 for my website to generate the HTML, but i did not like the idea that i was still typing HTML in my pages, even if it was simplified by using macros. I was updating a wiki page somewhere when it hit me: i wanted a command line system that was able to take wiki style input for page content. The result is clcms.
Its in beta state at the moment, mostly to try out some different approaches to various
challenges. But i thought id share it now, so if youre interested and might have some ideas on where to go from here, drop me a line (or a patch). At least it can build this site and the tutorial site, but anything more fancy will probably not work.
Its also a way for me to learn Python, so i might in my ignorance produce some weird constructs here and there. Please let me know, but be gentle.
Main features:
- Updates should be possible with a terminal and an editor
- Content is stored in a directory tree
- Adding pages (or items?) should be as easy as creating a new file and typing some lines in it.
- For default pages/items no config necessary
- No HTML, XML or anything alike for normal usage
- All pages have their binary content (images, download files) in the directory of the page itself
- All output is static, no generating on the fly
Usage:
After untarring the tarball, add < dir>/bin to your path or copy bin/clcms.py to a directory in your path.
You can now go to < dir>/examples/documentation and build the tutorial by running
clcms.py
Now wasnt that easy?
Point your browser to file://< dir>/examples/documentation/out/index.html and see the result of all your hard work.
If it did not work, its not your fault. Just remember that version number.
Enhancements:
- .page files can now contain content attributes.
- Filename extensions are removed and replaced by attribute lines in .page files.
- The page.meta file should now be called page.attr.
- The nomenu option had disappeared in a previous release, and has been put back.

This is my first amaroKs plugin that fetch lyrics from the amazing letras.mus.brs database. Its quite simple and can (no doubt) be improved.

Terra Letras (lyrics plugin) also store displayed lyrics in your homedir so that you can sing along even offline.

To stop fetching lyrics only in brazilian portuguese you have to change the default value of the "locale" variable in the very begining of the shell script.

Its not possible to configure it using a GUI, for now.

ID3v2 allows to store the lyric of a song directly in the tag. Lyrics ID3 is a script for amaroK which uses this fact.

If the writing script runs, the lyrics of the actual song are stored automatically in the mp3-tag.

The reading script, is an amaroK lyric script, which reads the mp3-tag on a fetchLyric request.

The download able file contains two scripts:

read_lyric_from_id3: amaroK Lyric Script
reads the USLT frame of the id3v2 header and sends the lyrics to amarok

save_lyric_to_id3:
Stores the lyrics, fetched from amaroK to the USLT frame in the ID3v2 header
The Lyrics are automatically saved on trackChange and Play
With the context menu saveLyrik the Lyrics are stored manually

Warning:
(1) The lyrics are stored in the mp3-File. I can not guaranty that the file is not damaged after the ID3 writing process.
(2) The files are not checked if they are a mp3. So non mp3 files may be damaged after writing.
