Hey Rod, great to hear from you, and to know that you are still alive and well. All are still up and walkin' round here.

As for Winamp, that option for two versions of Winamp on the same machine kinda escaped my memory. As of this moment, I haven't done anything with the new beta. I thought I'd give it a try on Monday, but I happened to be listening to an audio stream at the time and didn't wish to interrupt my listening, so I aborted the installation. I will get back to it some time this week, I'm sure, and will let ya know how things turned out.


Again, thanks for the reminder,


Larry

Hi Larry,

I’ve been thinking over your note for the last while.

I have not tried the newest Winamp, but it occurs to me that if this newer 
Winamp is anything like the older one, then you could install it in a different 
folder from your current installation and it wouldn’t mess up the older 
installation.
Of course, whatever icon it places on the desktop would refer to the newer 
installation rather than your original installation.
Okay, that would be the first complication, namely, you would be advised to 
rename the desktop icon of your original Winamp so that you would not lose it 
after the new installation overwrote it.
You could then proceed to test the Jeff Bishopscript functionality and see if 
it works.
The only way it would work is if the developer of the newer Winamp keeps the 
names of the key components of the original Winamp application since the Jeff 
Bishop script is tied to these.
Anyway, these are some observations from me, perhaps something to chew on. 
Smile.

Take care,

Rod

Guess the subject says it all.


I was looking around  on another list this morning, and someone pointed out a 
link that I never would have thought would play in Winamp, because it seems to 
be accessible only from a specific Web page. In other words, the extension, 
such as it was couldn't possibly be played with Winamp 5.666, but apparently be 
played with 5.8 Beta.


So what I am really asking. Do the Jeff Bishop scripts still work well with the 
latest version of Winamp? I mean, just trying to test this web link might not 
be worth it to me if the scripts will not function as well as they do now.


Any helpful  input on this will be greatly appreciated,


Larry
