myMPD v21.0.0

on GitHub

This release supports the first new MPD 0.25 feature and improves the scripting feature.

There is now a new trigger to provide a background image by a script. An example implementation is available in the mympd-scripts repository.

Scripts can now set temporary variables which are kept in memory only and have an expiration time. They are useful to save some state between script executions.

Thanks to @cbrenberg that ironed out a severe bug in the mympd.tmp_file() function.
