OSX

This assumes you have setup fluidsynth in the following way:

(grab a copy of GeneralUser_GS_1.44-FluidSynth.zip from one of the mirrors in http://www.filewatcher.com/m/GeneralUser_GS_1.44-FluidSynth.zip.28596599-0.html)

$ brew install fluidsynth
$ unzip GeneralUser_GS_1.44-FluidSynth.zip
$ mkdir -p /usr/local/share/fluidsynth
$ mv GeneralUser\ GS\ 1.44\ FluidSynth/GeneralUser\ GS\ FluidSynth\ v1.44.sf2 /usr/local/share/fluidsynth/generaluser.v.1.44.sf2

Running cliaoke with no arguments will list all the available songs. Once downloaded the songs are saved in a ~/.cliaoke/ directory.

Caveats for Mac Users

  • You must install fluidsynth according to the instructions below.
  • Sometimes the search for lyrics selects the wrong one, whomp whomp.
  • The lines being printed are not synced with the song. (maybe there is a way to parse the lyric metadata from a .mid file?)
