[REQUEST] Album Info Panel

I am big into downloading concerts, primarily Dave matthews band concerts and therefore my database is a rather large organization of DMB shows. i am not sure who is familiar with downloading shows so i will briefly explain what the files look like when i donwload them. there is of course the music files, one per track, usually .SHN or .FLAC. then of course tehre is the MD5 checksum. lastly there is a text file with the setlist and taping information. i was just wondering if it would be at all possible to incorporate a panel, for .9 OR .8.3 that would open up the text file in the directory for the show i am listening to and display it in foobar, sort of like a track info panel. thanks a lot

Shouldn't be too tricky, Trader's Friend can already be used to open the file, that code could be modified to display in a panel simply enough I would guess (or maybe something like this exists already? I remember people discussing it). Although ti doesn't display in a panel, Trader's Friend is probably what you want for now, and it'll even tag your files for you should you want it to.

Yeah, a panel that'll display txt files has been on my wishlist for quite a while now.

Ditto.

i have tons of sets with a tracklist.txt in the same directory.  This has been requested a few times now, but no one with any know how seems to care enough about the idea to do it.
