LITT

LITT (Lyrics in the Terminal) is, as the name suggests, a way to display lyrics of the currently playing song in the terminal. Note that this tool currently only supports linux as it uses playerctl but it may be expanded to multiple operating systems in the future.

Usage

Firstly make sure playerctl is installed:

# Debian / Debian-based
sudo apt install playerctl

# Fedora / Fedora-based
sudo dnf install playerctl

# Arch / Arch-based
sudo pacman -S playerctl

You can run LITT by typing litt and then choose your playerctl source. To access the settings run litt --settings.
