It's quite easy in KDE as well, and in other window managers, but right
after I started using Emms I became disillusioned with KDE and started
trying out different window managers.  For a while I used the same
emacsclient commands with the regular binding mechanism in Fvwm (my
current preferred WM), but then I found out about Xbindkeys.  Should I
choose to try Gnome (or move to another system where Fvwm is
unavailable), all I need is my config file.
