+#
+##### directories ######
+##
+## Directory for storing ncmpcpp related files.
+## Changing it is useful if you want to store
+## everything somewhere else and provide command
+## line setting for alternative location to config
+## file which defines that while launching ncmpcpp.
+##
+#
+ncmpcpp_directory = ~/.ncmpcpp
+#
+##
+## Directory for storing downloaded lyrics. It
+## defaults to ~/.lyrics since other MPD clients
+## (eg. ncmpc) also use that location.
+##
+#
+#lyrics_directory = ~/.lyrics
+#
+##### connection settings #####
+#
+#mpd_host = localhost
+#
+#mpd_port = 6600
+#
+#mpd_connection_timeout = 5
+#
+## Needed for tag editor and file operations to work.
+##
+mpd_music_dir = ~/usr/music
+#
+#mpd_crossfade_time = 5
+#
+##### music visualizer #####
+##
+## Note: In order to make music visualizer work you'll
+## need to use mpd fifo output, whose format parameter
+## has to be set to 44100:16:1 for mono visualization
+## or 44100:16:2 for stereo visualization. Example
+## configuration (it has to be put into mpd.conf):
+##
+## audio_output {
+## type "fifo"
+## name "Visualizer feed"
+## path "/tmp/mpd.fifo"
+## format "44100:16:2"
+## }
+##
+#
+visualizer_fifo_path = /tmp/mpd.fifo
+#
+##
+## Note: Below parameter is needed for ncmpcpp
+## to determine which output provides data for
+## visualizer and thus allow syncing between
+## visualization and sound as currently there
+## are some problems with it.
+##
+#
+visualizer_output_name = my fifo
+#
+##
+## If you set format to 44100:16:2, make it 'yes'.
+##
+visualizer_in_stereo = yes
+#
+##
+## Multiply received samples by given value. Very
+## useful for proper visualization of quiet music.
+##
+#visualizer_sample_multiplier = 1
+#
+##
+## Note: Below parameter defines how often ncmpcpp
+## has to "synchronize" visualizer and audio outputs.
+## 30 seconds is optimal value, but if you experience
+## synchronization problems, set it to lower value.
+## Keep in mind that sane values start with >=10.
+##
+#
+visualizer_sync_interval = 30
+#
+##
+## Note: To enable spectrum frequency visualization
+## you need to compile ncmpcpp with fftw3 support.
+##
+#
+## Available values: spectrum, wave, wave_filled, ellipse.
+##
+visualizer_type = spectrum
+#
+#visualizer_look = ●▮
+visualizer_look = "●•"
+#
+#visualizer_color = blue, cyan, green, yellow, magenta, red
+#
+## Alternative subset of 256 colors for terminals that support it.
+##
+#visualizer_color = 41, 83, 119, 155, 185, 215, 209, 203, 197, 161
+#
+##### system encoding #####
+##
+## ncmpcpp should detect your charset encoding
+## but if it failed to do so, you can specify
+## charset encoding you are using here.
+##
+## Note: You can see whether your ncmpcpp build
+## supports charset detection by checking output
+## of `ncmpcpp --version`.
+##
+## Note: Since MPD uses UTF-8 by default, setting
+## this option makes sense only if your encoding
+## is different.
+##
+#
+#system_encoding = ""
+#
+##### delays #####
+#
+## Time of inactivity (in seconds) after playlist
+## highlighting will be disabled (0 = always on).
+##
+#playlist_disable_highlight_delay = 5
+#
+## Defines how long messages are supposed to be visible.
+##
+#message_delay_time = 5
+#
+##### song format #####
+##
+## For a song format you can use:
+##
+## %l - length
+## %f - filename
+## %D - directory
+## %a - artist
+## %A - album artist
+## %t - title
+## %b - album
+## %y - date
+## %n - track number (01/12 -> 01)
+## %N - full track info (01/12 -> 01/12)
+## %g - genre
+## %c - composer
+## %p - performer
+## %d - disc
+## %C - comment
+## %P - priority
+## $R - begin right alignment
+##
+## If you want to make sure that a part of the format is displayed
+## only when certain tags are present, you can archieve it by
+## grouping them with brackets, e.g. '{%a - %t}' will be evaluated
+## to 'ARTIST - TITLE' if both tags are present or '' otherwise.
+## It is also possible to define a list of alternatives by providing
+## several groups and separating them with '|', e.g. '{%t}|{%f}'
+## will be evaluated to 'TITLE' or 'FILENAME' if the former is not
+## present.
+##
+## Note: If you want to set limit on maximal length of a tag, just
+## put the appropriate number between % and character that defines
+## tag type, e.g. to make album take max. 20 terminal cells, use '%20b'.
+##
+## In addition, formats support markers used for text attributes.
+## They are followed by character '$'. After that you can put:
+##
+## - 0 - default window color (discards all other colors)
+## - 1 - black
+## - 2 - red
+## - 3 - green
+## - 4 - yellow
+## - 5 - blue
+## - 6 - magenta
+## - 7 - cyan
+## - 8 - white
+## - 9 - end of current color
+## - b - bold text
+## - u - underline text
+## - r - reverse colors
+## - a - use alternative character set
+##
+## If you don't want to use a non-color attribute anymore, just put it
+## again, but this time insert character '/' between '$' and attribute
+## character, e.g. {$b%t$/b}|{$r%f$/r} will display bolded title tag
+## or filename with reversed colors.
+##
+## If you want to use 256 colors and/or background colors in formats
+## (the naming scheme is described below in section about color
+## definitions), it can be done with the syntax $(COLOR), e.g. to set
+## the artist tag to one of the non-standard colors and make it have
+## yellow background, you need to write $(197_yellow)%a$(end). Note
+## that for standard colors this is interchangable with attributes
+## listed above.
+##
+## Note: colors can be nested.
+##
+#

+##
+## Note: Below variables are used for sorting songs in browser.
+## The sort mode determines how songs are sorted, and can be used
+## in combination with a sort format to specify a custom sorting format.
+## Available values for browser_sort_mode are "name", "mtime", "format"
+## and "noop".

+#
+##### columns settings #####
+##
+## syntax of song columns list format is "column column etc."
+##
+## - syntax for each column is:
+##
+## (width of the column)[color of the column]{displayed tag}
+##
+## Note: Width is by default in %, if you want a column to
+## have fixed size, add 'f' after the value, e.g. (10)[white]{a}
+## will be the column that take 10% of screen (so the real width
+## will depend on actual screen size), whereas (10f)[white]{a}
+## will take 10 terminal cells, no matter how wide the screen is.
+##
+## - color is optional (if you want the default one,
+## leave the field empty).
+##
+## Note: You can give a column additional attributes by putting appropriate
+## character after displayed tag character. Available attributes are:
+##
+## - r - column will be right aligned
+## - E - if tag is empty, empty tag marker won't be displayed
+##
+## You can also:
+##
+## - give a column custom name by putting it after attributes,
+## separated with character ':', e.g. {lr:Length} gives you
+## right aligned column of lengths named "Length".
+##
+## - define sequence of tags, that have to be displayed in case
+## predecessor is empty in a way similar to the one in classic
+## song format, i.e. using '|' character, e.g. {a|c|p:Owner}
+## creates column named "Owner" that tries to display artist
+## tag and then composer and performer if previous ones are
+## not available.
+##
+#

+##### colors definitions #####
+##
+## It is possible to set a background color by setting a color

+## In addition, for terminals that support 256 colors it
+## is possible to set one of them by using a number in range
+## [1, 256] instead of color name, e.g. numerical value
+## corresponding to red_black is 2_1. To find out if the
+## terminal supports 256 colors, run ncmpcpp and check out
+## the bottom of the help screen for list of available colors
+## and their numerical values.
+##
+## Note: due to technical limitations of ncurses, if 256 colors
+## are used, it is possible to either use only the colors with
+## default background color, or all pairs from 1_1 up to 254_127,
