xmms- jukebox (patch)

hi all!

I hope this is the right place to post this to.

so here's a small patch that allows you to

a) limit the max length of the playlist
b) automatically remove a song after it has been played.

to use xmms as a "public jukebox".

feedback welcome.

those features can be enabled in the [xmms] section of the config file:

playlist_limit=10
purge_played=TRUE

setting playlist_limit=0 (default) allows unlimited songs in the 
playlist. since a playist with only one song does not make sense, max. 
'playlist_limit +1' songs can be in the list.

"purge_played" removes a song from the list when the EndOfFile is 
reached, or playlist_next is executed. (eg. by pressing the next-button)

If you want them, it should be trivial to add a checkbox and spinbutton
in the prefswin. IMHO these options do not need to have those buttons :)

notes:

since you loose the playlist, when purging songs, i thought of printing
the filename (before removing it from the list) to some FIFO or named
PIPE... that would allow you to create a played-list or also a top-ten. 
(plugin??)
