Re^3: loading a file in winamp using perl

It sounds like I have just the code you're looking for. Unfortunately it's: (a) Not finished and (b) Stored on my laptop meaning it'll take me a little while to find it.

It uses Win32::API to send calls directly to the Winamp window. It only works with Winamp 2. I'll post it here once I get my laptop out and remember where I've stored it.

Hey that would be great. It just so happens I'm using Winamp 2. I appreciate any help I can get on this, even if the script isn't finished.	[reply]

In order to start Winamp you have to execute it manually with exec() or system() anyway so in the meantime you can probably achieve what you're looking for (though in a less elegant way) by setting the "Enqueue as default action" option in Winamp and calling `winamp.exe <mp3 file>` in an exec or system call. -- Grant me the wisdom to shut my mouth when I don't know what I'm talking about.
