Benben: An audio player for the terminal, written in Common Lisp

If you read the fine print, the next significant release will be written in Common Lisp but the current releases are written in Crystal.

It's a Common Lisp program for end users and I can literally use it in 3 clicks, thanks to its AppImage (for Linux x86-64). Good (and rare) stuff!

It's also impressive to see that the audio decoding is mostly done in CL, without bindings.

It seems the developer has no plans to support MPEG-4 audio files.

cmus is also very cool, it’s a TUI. Paging through tracks in cmus blows iTunes out of the water.

when you have a thirst but only common lisp can quench it
