Description:
 PicoXine is a (very small) XINE implementation
for playing audio events as a replacement for
ARTS. It's extremely small (the source code is
only 3.0KiB long!) It offers great response time,
it's faster than MPlayer upon start-up, and it has
no stdout output if no errors are found. It's,
therefore, completely transparent.

It requires Xine-Lib (any version). If your distro
uses development packages, you need xine-devel and
libc6-devel

Changelog:
 0.0.1:
Initial Release

0.0.2:
* Removed X11 Linkage from build script: PicoXine
is now no longer dependant on X11/Xorg linkage,
this also makes it faster and smaller!

* Fixed stupid typo (omission of sudo in sudo
example) in the INSTALL / README file

0.0.3:

*Added Volume Option

*Added Audio Driver option

*To use these options, simply run picoxine without
any arguments and it will display the usage.

0.0.4:

*Increased Delay Loop to 40kUsec to attempt to
stop audio skips at EOF

0.0.5:

*Fixed Volume handling for it to work using the
internal XINE volume mixer, rather than your ALSA
mixer! Now it works!

*Added a secondary delay at EOF to prevent cut
offs.
