ncmpcpp: Connect to a music player daemon on a given host and port.

ncmpcpp

$ ncmpcpp --host ${ip} --port ${port}

try on your machine

The command "ncmpcpp --host ${ip} --port ${port}" is used to launch the ncmpcpp music player and connect to a specific server using the given IP address and port number.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

"ncmpcpp": This is the executable command for ncmpcpp, which is a command-line music player for Unix-like systems. It provides a rich set of features for managing and playing music files.
"--host ${ip}": This option specifies the host (IP address) of the remote server to connect to. The "${ip}" variable should be replaced with the actual IP address you want to connect to. For example, if you want to connect to a server with IP address 192.168.0.100, you would replace "${ip}" with "192.168.0.100".
"--port ${port}": This option specifies the port number of the remote server to connect to. The "${port}" variable should be replaced with the actual port number you want to use. For example, if the server is running on port 9999, you would replace "${port}" with "9999".

By using these options, the ncmpcpp command launches the music player and establishes a connection with the specified server, allowing you to manage and play music files remotely.
