Subject: [PATCH 3/3] player: support "source restart" command
Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2014 12:02:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1419681778-6183-4-git-send-email-e@80x24.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1419681778-6183-1-git-send-email-e@80x24.org>

This becomes useful for systems without inotify when we're editing
YAML (or whatever) files frequently and want changes to be reflected
right away during playback.  This is a weaker version of the plain
"restart" command, which restarts the entire playback chain.
