2 | iTunes -> sipbmp3 | |
3 | ----------------- | |
4 | This is a simple little script which sends | |
5 | music from an iTunes library to the sipbmp3 | |
6 | lpr server. | |
7 | ||
8 | * Changelog | |
9 | 9 Jan 2009 -> price added 'quoted form' | |
10 | 7 Jan 2009 -> kmill created initial version | |
11 | ||
12 | * System Requirements | |
13 | This script will only work under Mac OS X as | |
14 | it uses AppleScript. | |
15 | ||
16 | * Installation | |
17 | There are two parts: | |
18 | ||
19 | 1) Launch the Printer Setup Utility and add | |
20 | an IP Printer with the LPD protocol with | |
21 | the following information: | |
22 | Address: zygorthian-space-raiders.mit.edu | |
23 | Queue: sipbmp3 | |
24 | It is not necessary to specify the driver. | |
25 | ||
26 | 2) Create the directory ~/Library/iTunes/Scripts | |
27 | and place the "Send to sipbmp3.scpt" file | |
28 | within. | |
29 | ||
30 | * Usage | |
31 | When in iTunes, select the songs which you | |
32 | would like to hear in the office, and click | |
33 | "Send to sipbmp3" in the script menu from | |
34 | the menu bar. The script menu looks like a | |
35 | little scroll icon. There will be no | |
36 | feedback beyond the pleasant sounds you now | |
37 | hear around you. | |
38 | ||
39 | * Todo | |
40 | As it is, there is no feedback, even in the | |
41 | event of failure. This is decidedly not | |
42 | optimal. | |
43 | ||
44 | * And so... | |
45 | Do whatever you want with it. I'd like to | |
46 | have a copy if you extend it. | |
