Show HN: cmus-osx – Tightly integrates cmus command line music player into macOS

&gt; Attention! Installing cmus-osx will prevent you from opening iTunes until it is uninstalled! Since macOS 10.12 launchctl can not manipulate system services while System Integrity Protection is engaged. Long story short: iTunes will always be launched when a media key is pressed unless it is explicitly disabled.<p>I take it that they&#x27;re not using MediaPlayer.framework (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.apple.com&#x2F;documentation&#x2F;mediaplayer" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.apple.com&#x2F;documentation&#x2F;mediaplayer</a>), which was introduced in 10.12.1, that solves this exact problem? I would suggest against installing this until this is implemented.

Been using this for about six months now, thanks for writing this!

I was able to implement keyboard shortcuts with cmus + hammerspoon, I think you could do the notifications as well. This looks like a nice solution though.
