[enhancement] add background playback #141

Closed MaxBrandtner closed 2 months ago

muc allows you to select songs and then exit the terminal app while the music continues playing in the background. Reopening muc results in the ui state being restored. It would be great to have such a feature in kew as I would not like to have a terminal pane open when I want the audio to play in the background.

Thanks for the awsome work you guys do!

I'm hesitant to do this, and don't really understand why it's needed. Can't you minimize the terminal app?

Yeah, there's really no need. I understand if you ask for a cli, but a server-client approach would be the correct approach to implement this, and kew is not that, kew is a simple TUI music player.

It's not going to happen, I don't think, something like that is possible of course, but it would be best if it was made as a daemon from the start.
