=head1 NAME

mpgenplaylists - generate mpd playlists for each subdirectory of music

=head1 SYNOPSIS

mpgenplaylists

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<mpgenplaylists> generates mpd playlists.

It reads your ~/.mpdconf or /etc/mpd.conf to figure out where mpd keeps its
music directory and playlist directory.

For each subdirectory of the music directory, a playlist is generated in the
playlist directory. The playlists created by this tool always start with a
space to avoid conflicts with your manually created playlists.

So if you keep your sound in Artist/Album/ directories, you'll get playlists
named like " Artist - Album", and also playlists named just " Artist" that
contain all music by that artist. An " all" playlist is also created, that
contains all your music.

Each time it's run it updates the playlists, and removes any obsolete ones
that it created before.

=head1 LIMITATIONS

It does not currently sort songs in an album by track number, but instead
sorts by filename.
