Description
Control Winamp remotely via XML-RPC (or COM)

This plugin will turn Winamp into an xml-rpc server. Why would you want to do this? Well, I wrote it to control Winamp from other applications, such as Emacs, or Visual Studio. I often work at a single monitor connected through a KVM switch to multiple computers, with Winamp running on only one (the one with the good speakers & nice soundcard). So, I needed a way to be able to fire off requests remotely. xml-rpc is a simple protocol, with client support on a wide variety of platforms (unlike COM, for example). In particular, its spoken by Emacs (through the xml-rpc package), which was my first priority, since that's the app I spend the most time in.
