SYNOPSIS

-words [-hnqVv [-T cfg_template ] ] [file ... ]

DESCRIPTION

The script uses an ezstream configuration file template to stream a list of files given on the command line, or via standard input. In other words, filenames are written to a temporary playlist, and a template-based configuration is generated to stream them.

The path to a configuration template must be provided, either by using the -T command line argument, or the EZSTREAM_TEMPLATE environment variable.

The configuration template must be a valid playlist configuration, and contain the follwing configuration statement:

<filename>%FILENAME%</filename>

If no input files are specified, the list of files to be streamed are read from standard input.

Lastly, the EZSTREAM environment variable allows to specify an alternate ezstream binary.
