dmms | Dina MultiMedia System - a XMMS fork

cd xmms-1.2.8 ./configure make make install. This will put the binary in /usr/local/bin and plugins in /usr/local/lib/xmms/.
As far as I know most WM's accepts GTK decoration hints so it will not have borders. But some WM's can't handle this so you have to set in manually. AfterStep 1.0 ~/.steprc Style "XMMS_Player" NoTitle, NoHandles Style "XMMS_Playlist" NoTitle, NoHandles Style "XMMS_Equalizer" NoTitle, NoHandles. AfterStep 1.4 ~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep/database Style "XMMS_Player" NoTitle, NoHandles Style "XMMS_Playlist" NoTitle, NoHandles Style "XMMS_Equalizer" NoTitle, NoHandles. Fvwm's ~/.fvwm95rc Style "XMMS_Player" NoTitle Style "XMMS_Playlist" NoTitle Style "XMMS_Equalizer" NoTitle. CTWM's ~/.ctwmrc NoTitle and NoBorder sections: NoTitle { "xmms" }. NoBorder { "xmms" }.
XMMS will create a drawer called ~/.xmms/Skins/ in which you just unarchive the skins the same way as you do for WinAmp. However, you don't need to unarchive them since XMMS supports archived skins. XMMS currently reads the following formats: zip, wsz, tar, tar.gz and tar.bz2. Just copy the archive to one of the skin path's and XMMS will take care of the rest. In order to support zipped skins you will need to download unzip. ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/utils/compress/unzip-5.31.tar.gz. If you do not wish to have unzip in your path, then set the variable UNZIPCMD to the directory in which you keep the unzip command. Use ALT+S when using XMMS to bring up the skin selector. XMMS will remember which skin you had loaded when you start XMMS the next time. (saved in ~/.xmms/config) in the skin selector you have an option to use random skin on play, this will pick a random skin on song change.
