4This is a simple little script which sends
5music from an iTunes library to the gutenbach
6lpr server.

8* Changelog
929 Nov 2009 -> changed the name from sipbmp3 to gutenbach
1023 Aug 2009 -> broder spun loop into shell script instead of
11    applescript so that iTunes doesn't hang
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:
25    Address: hostname
26    Queue: gutenbach
27   It is not necessary to specify the driver.
28
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
322) Create the directory ~/Library/iTunes/Scripts
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.
37
38* Usage
39When in iTunes, select the songs which you
40would like to hear in the office, and click
41the script you want from the script menu from
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.
