selects the pointed track and deselects everything else.  With CTRL it flips
the state of the pointed track without affecting anything else.  With SHIFT it
selects every track from the last click to the current position and deselects
everything else.  With both CTRL and SHIFT it selects everything from the last
click to the current position without deselecting anything.

break up tracks by their first letter.

Playable files are represented by their name.  If they are playing or in the
queue then a notes icon appears next to them.

Left clicking on a file will select it.  As with the queue tab you can use
SHIFT and CTRL to select multiple files.

The text box at the top is a search form.  If you enter search terms here then
the display will be limited to tracks containing all those words.  You can also
limit the results to tracks with particular tags, by including \fBtag:\fITAG\fR
for each tag.

button to its right clears the current search.

on the same host as the server then no additional configuration should be
required.

If it is running on a different host then the server will need a
.B listen
directive in its configuration and the clien a matching
.B connect
directive.  Also the client will need user passwords, either in
.IR pkgconfdir/config. USER
or
.IR ~ USER /.disorder.passwd .
.PP
You might use commands such as the following to set up a standalone instance of
Disobedience:
.PP
.RS
.nf
cd
mkdir .disorder
echo password <your password> > .disorder/passwd
echo connect <hostname> <port> >> .disorder/passwd
chmod 600 .disorder/passwd
