In Operation
Here’s an image of xfmpc in action. The interface is functional. Add tracks to the playlist.
This MPD client offers only very limited functionality. There’s repeat, random, single mode, and consume mode. Keyboard shortcuts have been implemented. There’s internationalization support.
Summary
xfmpc doesn’t have a maintainer. And it’s hard to recommend it when there are much better graphical MPD clients available.
ps_mem reports memory usage is around 17 MB. Factor in the footprint for mpd, you still have a music player that has a very light memory footprint. But then again, it’s really very basic.
