dependencies

This program requires notify-send on your system.

For archlinux, install libnotify:
$ sudo pacman -S libnotify

It also requires a notification server, generally built-in if you use 'big' desktop environments like gnome or kde.

Alternatively, you can use dunst (https://dunst-project.org/)


playing the radio stream is configurable, vlc is used by default.
you can use ffplay (from ffmpeg), mplayer, or any cli player capable of playing http streams.


of course this program requires python 3+ installed in your system.
