maybe this is a very newbie question...but.. i can't find a answer anywhere..
I see in some themes, that when winamp isn't in memory shows a label and when he's in memory shows another one.. Any advice?

What module are you using? I'm going to assume jAmpToo. Is this what you are looking for?
jAmpNoWinampText "Winamp off"

Either take a look at how those themes do it or get literunner.dll to hide/show labels.

sry, geekamp only controls winamp, it doesn't display its properties (current song, time etc). jAmpToo, Gandharva and Label can do stuff like that.

Geekamp provide 'only' controling functions for winamp. There's no way to display informations with it (as far as I know)

literunnner.dll is a module
label.dll is another module
both have readme files

what you have to do:
- download the modules listed above,
- read the doc,
- assign a hotkey to !LiteRunnerIdentify (in order to know the classname of winamp)
- make a label that you will call 'AmpLabel' (for example)
- make literunner detect winamp opening/closing and change the label text according to what you want to do...
