Hi,
I'm new here but I've been reading this forum for quite some time now
and I've noticed that some people would like to use squeezelite in some
small projects together with a 2x16 LCD, some buttons and an IR
receiver.
Of course, you can design a python script that would connect to the
server using Telnet and retreive information but I like squeezeslave's
GUI. Looking at squeezeslave's source code, I've noticed that the whole
GUI is handled at the server side and everything is already there to
include it into squeezelite. I understand that adding a GUI to
squeezelite defeat the purpose of having a headless squeezebox player,
but I think it could be usefull to some people.
So I've added the necessary bits of codes into squeezelite to make it
behave as squeezeslave. It's available here :

Code:
--------------------
    https://github.com/fpasteau/squeezelite
--------------------


I've tested it on Ubuntu and on Raspbian, but not on windows or on OSX.
To compile it, you will need liblircclient-dev libncurses5-dev
Then run 
Code:
--------------------
    OPTS=-DINTERACTIVE make
--------------------


This interactive part has been added as an option, if you don't want it,
don't use OPTS=-DINTERACTIVE, and you will have the same code as the
original squeezelite.

I hope it's fine with Triode that I publish this, otherwise tell me and
I'll remove the link.

I hope it'll be usefull for someone.
