1. Read the LICENSE file. It's the BSD license.

2. compile the source code.
     g++ -shared `gtk-config --cflags --libs` titlefader.cc -o libtitlefader.so

3. install it.
   
   if you want to install the plugin locally
     mv libtitlefader.so ~/.xmms/Plugins/General
   make sure .xmms/Plugins/General exists!
   

   if you want to install the plugin system wide
     mv libtitlefader.so `xmms-config --general-plugin-dir`
   Probably you have to become root.

4. configure the plugin. Just play around and you'll understand the
   configuration dialog. Use the test button!!
