53 .B "Random play button"
54 The random play button can be used to enable and disable random play. It does
55 not take effect until the currently playing track finishes.
58 The play button controls whether tracks will be played at all. As above it
59 does not take effect until the currently playing track finishes.

68 means the only the right speaker.

71 track is at the top and has a green background. Queued tracks appear below it
72 and have alternating red and white backgrounds.
74 The left button can be use to select and deselect tracks. On its own it just
75 selects the pointed track and deselects everything else. With CTRL it flips
76 the state of the pointed track without affecting anything else. With SHIFT it
77 selects every track from the last click to the current position and deselects
78 everything else. With both CTRL and SHIFT it selects everything from the last
79 click to the current position without deselecting anything.

114 to reveal or hide the contents of the directory. The top level "directories"
115 break up tracks by their first letter.
117 Playable files are represented by their name. If they are playing or in the
118 queue then a notes icon appears next to them.
120 Left clicking on a file will select it. As with the queue tab you can use
121 SHIFT and CTRL to select multiple files.
123 The text box at the top is a search form. If you enter search terms here then
124 the display will be limited to tracks containing all those words. You can also
125 limit the results to tracks with particular tags, by including \fBtag:\fITAG\fR
128 To start a new search just edit the contents of the search box. The cancel
129 button to its right clears the current search.

134 Play selected tracks.
137 Edit properties of selected tracks. See
