DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the simadb_cli commands.

       simadb_cli is a command line interface to get and edit users blacklist database used with
       MPD_sima. The default database file (see the section called “FILES”) can be overridden if
       you want.

EXAMPLE

   Black list edition
       Adding to black list.  You can add a single track, an album or an artist to the black
       list. The element to black list is chosen from the currently playing track. Use
       --bl_curr_trk to prevent simadb_cli to queue this track, --bl_curr_alb or --bl_curr_art
       respectively for the album and the artist.

       Remember you need access to your MPD server to retrieve information to black list.
       Defaults are localhost:6600 or found in environment variables but you may set it up from
       command line:

       simadb_cli --bl_curr_art -S mympd.example.org

       To black list a specific artist (not currently playing) you can use --bl_ar="Artist name
       to black list".

           If artist_name is not found the script print out a list of matching artists.

       --bl_curr_trk | --bl_curr_art | --bl_curr_alb
