Hints on displayed list organization would be nice... eg. playlists etc. I've managed Gtk-based list editing, scrolling, etc in Perl and C so if I could find that stuff I could probably start on that. I don't know if there are documented behavior expectations, but as it is it comes up in Library or something with the alphanum-first album opened. It would seem much more useful to have it come up with play queue, play list selection, last-selected play list, or simply last-selected list... Being able to select which columns display (I personally could not care less about filetype or byte count while mixing...) and having width settings persist would be nice. Since control over those would be non-controversial, I figured I could just hack about, make diffs, then someone could decide on what goes where when. > (I would say that starting to use grep effectively was a turning point in my > open source career, hah) :) Oh yeah, regexps are my special friend. I haven't mastered loops within them, I think a crack in the atmosphere opens when you do that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
