I currently have a function that prints the position and duration from cmus and formats it like "1/500". The issue I'm having is that I would like the position and duration data to be presented in minutes as opposed to seconds (0:01/8:20 instead of 1/500) but I'm out of ideas on how to achieve this.

Currently the relevant part of the function looks like this:

print_music(){

    if ps -C cmus > /dev/null; then

        position=`cmus-remote -Q |

            grep --text '^position' |

            sed -e 's/position //' |

            awk '{gsub("position ", "");print}'`

        duration=`cmus-remote -Q |

            grep --text '^duration' |

            sed -e 's/duration //' |

            awk '{gsub("duration ", "");print}'`

        echo "[$position/$duration]"; else echo "";

    fi

}

bash awk

  Using date -d@$variable +%-M%S does the conversion but unlike @glenn jackman solution, date will wrap to 0:00 at 3,600 secs.
