[Nettime-bold] Schoenheit im Gebrauch


Well, its megasimple, but it had to be defined, now it is at

ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/media-types/video/vnd.mpegurl 

with a reference to the Leonardo Music Journal ;-)

A better shellscript, less junk, would be:

   #!/bin/sh -
   exec xargs -n 1 mtvp < "$1"

But thanks to Russia for the junk !!
