✨ MPRAND ✨

okay so bestie, lemme put you on to mprand — it's the little manual page that could, and honestly? it's giving chaos DJ energy 🎧🔥

🌸 NAME 🌸

mprand — play a random playlist 💅

like, it literally just picks a playlist for you. no thinking required. main character behavior fr fr.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

mprand[host]

yes that's the whole thing. that's it. iconic minimalism 😌

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the tea ☕:

mprand picks a playlist at random and tells mpd to play it. that's the entire job. it's a one-trick pony and the trick is slay ✨

and if you're like "bestie what if I don't pass a hostname??" — first of all, valid question, second of all, don't even worry:

• if the hostname is omitted, the MPD_HOST environment variable will be used instead 🫶

so like, set your env var once and let the vibes carry you. no cap.

ngl this is the part where you go set MPD_HOST if you haven't already. not me reminding you twice. 🙈
