Re: [Rhythmbox-devel] retreive rythmbox status via shell script.....

[mat nicholson <sjoeboo sjoeboo com>]

actually i got it soon after i posted that. the import bonobo.ui needed
to be removed/commented out, and the one reference to it replaced with
just straight up bonobo, no ui. after that, a little bit of playing
around (i'm only written a few basic python scripts/programs before
this), and it got it doing everything i need it to do. the best part is,
before i was using all sorts of temp files etc so i could run perl on
them etc, plus i had to have the  "id3" program installed and xmms-info
pipe, bla bla bla. now i can get everything from one place, do what i
need in python, and the only non-python thing is a
commands.getoutput('scp file me host:/file') to toss this little piece
of html to a place my website does and "include" from. awesome. thanks
for the help. next project: modify the gaim-rhythmbox plugin to show
song last played, instead of current...maybe..i'll at least poke around.
thanks again for the help.
