Loading an .exe with .txt information

0

I have the Music Player Daemon version for Windows, running together with ncmpcpp through Cygwin. Since just opening the MPD executable it won't recognize my libraries, etc, I have setup some lines of information in a .txt file, and I drag it onto the executable for it to work fine. Is there anyway to implement those lines in the executable, without dragging the .txt file every time I want to open it?

The current lines are:

port                    "6600"
music_directory         "C:/Music"
playlist_directory      "C:/MPD/.mpd/playlists"
db_file                 "C:/MPD/.mpd/mpd.db"
log_file                "C:/MPD/.mpd/mpd.log"

audio_output {
    type                    "winmm"
    name                    "My Windows Device"
}

Where "music_directory" is the destination of my musics, and all the other lines contains information for the MPD files and the audio output.

1I guess you just need to tell mpd to use configuration file. Dragging the file causes the filename to be passed as an argument to the exe file. You can create a shortcut to the exe and in the shortcut properties you insert the txt config file name after the exe. – Marki555 – 2015-07-08T21:50:54.747

As Marki555 stated you can pass the config via a conf file (your txt-file) to the mpd.exe by adding it as an argument. Also, see the mpd man page! – BigSN – 2015-11-12T08:56:35.587
