[bongo-devel] Bongo wishlist #11: marks

[Romain Francoise]

I think we should have marks in Bongo.  They wouldn't really be useful
for cherry-picking (you can enqueue tracks immediately as you go), but
rather for selecting tracks to act on in a more efficient fashion.

The way I see things, the marking commands would match against the full
track info, allowing the user to act on the artist, album or track in
one go, e.g.:

  % m Mozart RET k   ->   kill all Mozart tracks, he's boring

  % m Live at RET e  ->   enqueue all live performances

  % m Sonic.*1995 RET RET -> play all Sonic Youth tracks from 1995 *

Possibly also add % a for artist, % t for tracks, % y for years...

(Does anyone know if EMMS has something like that?)

* RET on multiple tracks could play the first and insert-enqueue the
  others
