Very cool, works with w2k + sp4 now
anyway, i did notice a few things, colors in scripts don't seem to work, i know there a little box there for adding colors, but it's not very flexible, i use different colors for bitrate and such....
like this:

//bitrate stuff
$if2($greater(0,$info(bitrate)),$get(RED))
$if2($greater(129,$info(bitrate)),$get(YELLOW))
$if2($greater(161,$info(bitrate)),$get(GREY))
$if2($greater(192,$info(bitrate)),$get(GREEN))
$if2($greater(256,$info(bitrate)),$get(BLUE))
$pad($info(bitrate),4)$char(9474)

Also, i'm not quite sure of the $pad_right(), $pad() and such features, are they working like they do in the normal iu ?

But my my scrollwheel on the mouse ain't working!

And what is the "use custom title spec for sorting by column" ? give an example on it plz

EDIT: oh, and the sorting is kinda nuts on the lenght (i guess we need natural sorting or something like that)

EDIT2: Also, the the dropdown thingy (playmode, default,shuffle, whatever...) does not show, it does not drop down....

Also, a save config thingy like foo_syfm would be awsome

rectangle & tri: thanks, both fixed (redownload, still marked alpha 5)

1. You can use colour codes in the string, its working fine here. You can also use tab char's the same way you would with standard ui.

2. pad stuff, If you use a fixed width font probably

3. custom sort spec is the spec to use for sorting when clicking on the columns, the box underneath is where you put the spec so you could put $num() there and avoid natural sorting

4. working here but was giving me wierd problems before, will look into it

5. I will add import/export tools when things are a bit for finalised
