What was the problem with the volume control?

The answer to your question is that I had to go to MS's website and get the
value of the WM_USER constant, which I then set since it wasn't being exported
by Win32::GUI.

Winamp published a list of codes to control the program using
SendMessage(). The web page is listed in my code below.
I can get the set of WM_COMMAND codes to work (stop and play), but not the
WM_USERS codes (mute and status. I have no way of knowing if the problem
is caused by my code, Win32::GUI, or Winamp. I'd appreciate it if any
Winamp users could take a quick look at this.
Thanks!

There's more features available using SendMessage() than using
keyboard commands.
Thanks for the heads-up on the module.

The above link has the list of commands Winamp accepts. The primary
benefit is being able to query Winamp. Is there a song playing? What
songs are in the playlist?
Just emulating keyboard presses is more on a one-way communication (stop
and play).

..such as?
Is there any documentation on SendMessage and what these numbers mean?
