ncmpcpp config

I thought I could share my ncmpcpp config file with you. Ncmpcpp (also ncmpc++) is console client for MPD, and it bases on ncmpc. MPD can be bit difficult to set up at first but I think it has been the best music playing app for me (even though I use it only in this one computer) with moc.
