AMPLE(1) User Manual AMPLE(1)NAMEample - Ample MP3 server
SYNOPSISample [OPTION] [PATH...]
DESCRIPTIONample Ample is an MP3 server that allows you to listen to your music
that can be stored locally or remotely. It does not intend to support
mixing, radio shows etc. It's just an easy way to listen to your MP3's
everywhere using the "open location" features already present in XMMS,
WinAmp and Media Player. After installing, configuring and starting
ample, try connecting to http://server:1234/ with the "open location"
feature of your favourite MP3 player or http://server:1234/index.html
with your favourite web browser.

order.
