# Spotify at OS X Terminal

An AppleScript for controlling Spotify through a terminal:

```
The scenario for which it was originally designed is controlling Spotify,
which is playing on a Mac, via ssh, while working on a Linux machine
on the other side of the room.
```

Currently supported functions are: play/pause, next/previous
track, jumping in time, toggling shuffle/repeat and changing volume.
This pretty much covers everything the AppleScript hooks of Spotify
allow.
