Re: [Banshee-List] Cleanup plugin now available

["Trey Ethridge" <tethridge gmail com>]

The plugin is simple at the moment.  It checks if the file exists.  If
File.Exists is false, the track is removed from the library and any
playlists that it is a member of.  If the playlist doesn't have any
tracks left in it, then it removes the playlist.

I'm working on playlist import/export functionality so you can backup
those carefully crafted non-dynamic playlists soon.  :-)
