Lyrics App for Mac OS X build ontop of Node-Webkit
- Automatically fetches lyrics to track played in iTunes
- Lyrics is being saved to ~/.lyrics
- You can add lyrics manually (if it's not on lyrics.wikia.com) or edit it (by double-clicking the lyrics)
- Pressing S you can fetch lyrics manually as well (if it's not in your iTunes library, for example)
##Limitations and caveats
- If
node-webkit
is already installed on your system you are advised to usemake link
, as it decreases the size significantly (~75MB vs. ~5MB). Note, however, that if you move or removenode-webkit
,nw-lyrics
will fail to start! - Since
nw-lyrics
is built ontop the heavyweightnode-webkit
it might take a while to start up. However, once it's started it runs smoothly.
