hi, i think this is one of my first posts, owell no matter.

i was talking with ilmcuts about adding a feature to jAmpToo that would allow users to display the playlist on their desktop, he suggested a new module be made for that sort of thing.

so im here asking if anyones interested in creating a module that would allow a user to display their playlist from winamp on their desktop, also allowing them to play the tracks by clicking on them.

i know the: !Amp_JumpToFile is able to do this, but i thought just a listing that can be positioned and skinned and what not would be better for certain ppl that find the window for the above bang a little bulky.

anyways, hope that describes some of what im asking, anyone interest in this would be great.

Thanks for your time.

I think it is must be a WinAMP plugin, because there is no other way to work with the native WA playlist.

I have a separate Playlist.exe that has bangs for litestep and is configurable it does everything your asking for.

Not sure about some other ls winamp mods but geekamp and a bang !Amp_PlayList that toggles winamp's playlist, I just use a shortcut with the bang. Might be easier than creating another ls or winamp mod.

im creating a template for what my new desktop will look like - i'll add the adition of a playlist in how i would want it to look like.

ive been using the some of the GeekAmp bangs but find without a change in the appearance of windows Explorer itself, that it still looks 'windowsish' i guess w/o changing that, i can go only so far.

thanks for all the feedback so far guys, appreciate it

see...what I honestly don't understand is that I got this "functionality" within 30 seconds and this thread has been open for a week.

Right click on Winamp and show your Playlist window and hide your Main window. Once that is done !Amp_Hide and !Amp_Show will toggle your playlist window. All you need then is a winamp theme for your theme.

Yep, winamp doesn't have to look "windowsish" at all =)
