+* Initialize EMMS                                               :emms:
+
+  Initialize a minimal EMMS setup. Load the default players so we can
+  use mplayer or any of the generic mp3 and ogg players.
+
+  Load the MPD player so we can connect to MPD and use that if
+  possible, set the music directory to MPD's music directory so it
+  knows how to translate filenames to something MPD understands.
+
+  Load the =emms-mode-line= module so we can display some information in
+  the mode-line about which song is playing and set my preferred
+  function for extracting this information. The =emms-info-mpd= function
+  doesn't seem to return anything, so I've had to improvise to turn
+  absolute file names into something nicer.
