-#+title: CurseRadio: Listening to the Radio on the Command Line
-#+date: 2022-07-25
-#+description: Use Curse Radio to listen to radio on the command line.
-#+filetags: :linux:
-
-* Overview
-While exploring some interesting Linux applications, I stumbled across
-[[https://github.com/chronitis/curseradio][curseradio]], a command-line
-radio player based on Python.
-
-This application is fantastic and incredibly easy to install, so I
-wanted to dedicate a post today to this app. Let's look at the features
-within the app and then walk through the installation process I took to
-get =curseradio= working.
-
-* Features
-#+caption: curseradio
-[[https://img.cleberg.net/blog/20220725-curseradio/curseradio.png]]
-
-The radio player itself is quite minimal. As you can see in the
-screenshot above, it contains a simple plaintext list of all available
-categories, which can be broken down further and further. In addition,
-radio shows are available for listening, alongside regular radio
-stations.
-
-For example, the =Sports= > =Pro Basketball= > =Shows= category contains
-a number of specific shows related to Professional Basketball.
-
-Aside from being able to play any of the listed stations/shows, you can
-make a channel your favorite by pressing =f=. It will now show up at the
-top of the radio player in the =Favourites= category.
-
-** Commands/Shortcuts
-| Key(s) | Command |
-|------------+---------------------------------|
-| ↑, ↓ | navigate |
-| PgUp, PgDn | navigate quickly |
-| Home, End | to top/bottom |
-| Enter | open/close folders, play stream |
-| k | stop playing stream |
-| q | quit |
-| f | toggle favourite |
-
-* Installation
-** Dependencies
-Before installing =curseradio=, a handful of system and Python packages
-are required. To get started, install =python3=, =pip3=, and =mpv= on
-your system. In this example, I'm using Fedora Linux, which uses the
-=dnf= package manager. You may need to adjust this if you're using a
-different system.
-
-#+begin_src sh
-sudo dnf install python3 pip3 mpv
-#+end_src
-
-Next, use =pip3= to install =requests=, =xdg=, and =lxml=:
-
-#+begin_src sh
-pip3 install requests xdg lxml
-#+end_src
-
-** Repository Source Installation
-Once all the dependencies are installed, we can clone the source code
-and enter that directory:
-
-#+begin_src sh
-git clone https://github.com/chronitis/curseradio && cd curseradio
-#+end_src
-
-Once you're within the =curseradio= directory, you can install the
-application with the provided =setup.py= script.
-
-#+begin_src sh
-sudo python3 setup.py install
-#+end_src
-
-In my case, I ran into a few errors and needed to create the folders
-that curseradio wanted to use for its installation. If you don't get any
-errors, you can skip this and run the app.
-
-#+begin_src sh
-sudo mkdir /usr/local/lib/python3.10/
-sudo mkdir /usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/
-#+end_src
-
-#+begin_src sh
-sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /usr/local/lib/python3.10/
-#+end_src
-
-* Run the Application
-Once fully installed without errors, you can run the application!
-
-#+begin_src sh
-python3 /usr/local/bin/curseradio
-#+end_src
