[Dialog] Help with Now Playing script

[M.B.]

Hi everybody,

I've been using Dialog for a while now but only recently discovered that
'tude can do custom scripts. I work at home and so always have my pc on and
music playing, but... I have no idea how or where the Now Playing script is
supposed to go (total newbie to Dialog scripts).

Could some kind soul walk me through it - or at least set me in the right
direction as to getting it set up within Dialog?

Thanks in advance. :)

settings/scripting/scripting...

create a new OnBeforeSendingMessage event script, delete everything
and paste my X-Now-Playing script code in the editor. save the script,
compile, exit dialog, start it again (not necessary, but i've noticed
beta 2.0.5.1 crash if the script is reloaded via menu). there. :)

you can change my script's settings by altering some constants and
recompiling the script.

i'd very much like to release version 1.0 of the script, which is,
like, unbelieveably l33+ (sort of like abercrombie), but dialog's
scripting engine doesn't support pointers, so the whole thing's dead
for now... in fact, i don't even use my old script anymore as a form
of protest ;)
