Theming

cmus supports theming and supplies a bunch of themes out of the box. They can be found in /usr/share/cmus.

To load a theme, use the command :colorscheme .

Scribbling

Scribbling can be done with cmus-status-scrobbler.

Once the program is setup, the cmus config setting status_display_program needs to be set to the absolute path of the bash script which calls cmus-status-scrobbler. Shell env variables are not expanded.
