Linux cheap "Now playing" with /exec and xmms2
BitchX:
/alias xmms2 /exec -out echo \$(xmms2 info|grep title\\\|artist|sed -e "s/.* = //"|tr "\n" ";"|sed -e "s/\(.*\);\(.*\);/spielt \2 von \1 mit xmms2/")
SILC:
/alias xmms2 /exec - -out xmms2 info|grep -E artist\\|title|sed -e 's/^.* artist = / von /' -e 's/^.* title = /spielt /'|tr '\n' '|'|sed -e 's/\\(.*\\)|\\(.*\\)|/\\2\\1 mit xmms2/'
Different escaping rules, joy :)
