It takes advantage of the wonderful Tool219 by FTA. This player is capable of loading 20 songs into memory and then playing them from song to song and then looping back to the first song when it finishes the last song. (The 20 song limit is an artificial limit put in by me. I don't figure people will be loading more than 20 songs in at one time. If you would like me to raise the number of songs that can be played, send me comments on what you would like it to be changed to) This is the format for running Shuffle: Shuffle [-v] -n Impact6 JCD.Megablaster song3... -v is optional, including it makes shuffle print text as it runs. Not including it makes Shuffle run in silence. -n is the number of songs to be played, where n is an integer between one and twenty. song these are the actual songs to be played.. Running shuffle with out the -v (verbose) switch is very nice for GNO so that you can run it in the background without any output. IMPORTANT: This program can only play songs that have doc files, designated by the ".w" suffix. The doc ram sound file MUST be in the same folder as the song.
