Here follows the fmstart script:

#!/usr/bin/bash

# "fmstart" starts playing last.fm radio. "fmstart"
# should be used before any other bashfm commands are
# given. It obtains the username, password, and
# mediaplayer from the ".bashfm" file. If the password
# present in the file as plain text, it will be md5
# encoded and the plain text version will be removed.
# It then logs in into Last.fm, obtains the audio
# stream URL, and launches the media player. "fmstart"
# takes no command arguments.
