        *python-mpd2* is a Python library which provides a client interface for
        the `Music Player Daemon <http://musicpd.org>`__.
        
        Difference with python-mpd
        --------------------------
        
        python-mpd2 is a fork of `python-mpd`_.  While 0.4.x was backwards compatible
        with python-mpd, starting with 0.5 provides enhanced features which are *NOT*
        backward compatibles with the original `python-mpd`_ package.  (see PORTING.txt
        for more information)
        
        The following features were added:
        
        -  Python 3 support (but you need at least Python 2.6)
        -  support for the upcoming client-to-client protocol
        -  support for new commands from MPD v0.17 (seekcur, prio, prioid,
           config, searchadd, searchaddpl)
        -  remove deprecated commands (volume)
        -  explicitly declared MPD commands (which is handy when using for
           example `IPython <http://ipython.org>`__)
        -  a test suite
        -  API documentation to add new commands (see `Future Compatible <http://pythonhosted.org/python-mpd2/topics/advanced.html#future-compatible>`__)
        -  support for Unicode strings in all commands (optionally in python2,
           default in python3 - see `Unicode Handling <http://pythonhosted.org/python-mpd2/topics/advanced.html#unicode-handling>`__)
        -  configureable timeouts
        -  support for `logging <http://pythonhosted.org/python-mpd2/topics/logging.html>`__
        -  improved support for sticker
        -  improved support for ranges
        
        If you like this module, you could try contact the original author
        jat@spatialrift.net or join the discussion on the 
        `issue tracker <http://jatreuman.indefero.net/p/python-mpd/issues/7/>`__ so that
        it gets merged upstream.
        
        Getting the latest source code
        ------------------------------
        
        If you would like to use the latest source code, you can grab a
        copy of the development version from Git by running the command::
        
            $ git clone git://github.com/Mic92/python-mpd2.git
        
        Getting the latest release
        --------------------------
        
        The latest stable release of *python-mpd2* can be found on
        `PyPI <http://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=display&name=python-mpd2>`__
        
        PyPI:
        ~~~~~
        
        ::
        
            $ pip install python-mpd2
        
        Installation in Linux/BSD distributions
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Until Linux distributions adapt this package, here are some ready to use
        packages to test your applications:
        
        See `INSTALL.rst <INSTALL.rst>`__
        
        Installing from source
        ----------------------
        
        To install *python-mpd2* from source, simply run the command::
        
            $ python setup.py install
        
        You can use the *--help* switch to *setup.py* for a complete list of commands
        and their options. See the `Installing Python Modules <http://docs.python.org/inst/inst.html>`__ document for more details.
        
        Documentation
        -------------
        
        `Documentation <http://pythonhosted.org/python-mpd2/index.html>`__
        
        `Getting Started <http://pythonhosted.org/python-mpd2/topics/getting-started.html>`__
        
        `Command Reference <http://pythonhosted.org/python-mpd2/topics/commands.html>`__
        
        `Examples <examples>`__
        
        Testing
        -------
        
        Just run::
        
            $ python setup.py test
        
        This will install `Tox <http://tox.testrun.org/>`__. Tox will take care of
        testing against all the supported Python versions (at least available) on our
        computer, with the required dependencies
        
        Building Documentation
        ----------------------
        
        Install Sphinx::
        
            $ easy_install -U Sphinx
        
        Change to the source directory an run::
        
            $ python ./setup.py build_sphinx
