[3fde6d5]1-----------------
[e520009]2iTunes -> gutenbach
[3fde6d5]3-----------------
4This is a simple little script which sends
[e520009]5music from an iTunes library to the gutenbach
[3fde6d5]6lpr server.
7
8* Changelog
[e520009]929 Nov 2009 -> changed the name from sipbmp3 to gutenbach
[a9e08a4]1023 Aug 2009 -> broder spun loop into shell script instead of
11    applescript so that iTunes doesn't hang
[3fde6d5]129 Jan 2009 -> price added 'quoted form'
137 Jan 2009 -> kmill created initial version
14
15* System Requirements
16This script will only work under Mac OS X as
17it uses AppleScript.
18
19* Installation
20There are two parts:
21
221) Launch the Printer Setup Utility and add
23   an IP Printer with the LPD protocol with
24   the following information:
[e520009]25    Address: hostname
26    Queue: gutenbach
[3fde6d5]27   It is not necessary to specify the driver.
28
[e520009]29   *** Note that you MUST give the printer name as the same name as
30       the queue, NOT the address (which it seems to default to). ***
31
[3fde6d5]322) Create the directory ~/Library/iTunes/Scripts
[e520009]33   and place the scripts you want within.
34
353) Edit those scripts such, replacing "hostname" with the hostname of
36your printer and "gutenbach" with the printername.
[3fde6d5]37
38* Usage
39When in iTunes, select the songs which you
40would like to hear in the office, and click
[e520009]41the script you want from the script menu from
[3fde6d5]42the menu bar.  The script menu looks like a
43little scroll icon.  There will be no
44feedback beyond the pleasant sounds you now
45hear around you.
46
47* Todo
48As it is, there is no feedback, even in the
49event of failure.  This is decidedly not
50optimal.
51
52* And so...
53Do whatever you want with it.  I'd like to
54have a copy if you extend it.
