Rtunes streams files containing Apple Lossless audio data to an Apple AirPort Express device. If a '-' is given as the file(s) argument, rtunes expects raw PCM audio data on stdin and encodes it to the Apple Lossless format prior to streaming it. With this method it is possible to stream audio data from any source that can output raw PCM audio data on stdout. NOTE: the patch and mplayer helper library for this package are untested; it is installed merely as a convenience.
