What is it?
It's an XMMS input plugin to play shorten (.shn) files. As of version 2.0, xmms-shn no longer depends on an external shorten executable to function. However, to take advantage of the real-time seeking capabilities built into version 2.x, you have to seek-enable your .shn's with the new version 3 of shorten.
Much information on the new version is available in the README file that comes with the xmms-shn distribution, including information on how to seek-enable your .shn's. Please read it carefully!
See the ChangeLog file for more information about what's new in each version.
