It would load but not work it I removed the line about importing unescape.

Sorry about that.  I thought the unescape function came with the component.  Here's the code for that function:
http://codeviewer.org/view/code:5289

Save the code as unescape.py, and store it in your "C:\Users\Gonzo\AppData\Roaming\foobar2000\user-components\foo_lyricsgrabber2\pygrabber\system\" directory.

For future reference (in case the codeviewer link breaks), here's the unescape function:

Code: [Select]

import re, htmlentitydefs

##
# Removes HTML or XML character references and entities from a text string.
#
# @param text The HTML (or XML) source text.
# @return The plain text, as a Unicode string, if necessary.

def unescape(text):
    def fixup(m):
        text = m.group(0)
        if text[:2] == "&#":
            # character reference
            try:
                if text[:3] == "&#x":
                    return unichr(int(text[3:-1], 16))
                else:
                    return unichr(int(text[2:-1]))
            except ValueError:
                pass
        else:
            # named entity
            try:
                text = unichr(htmlentitydefs.name2codepoint[text[1:-1]])
            except KeyError:
                pass
        return text # leave as is
    return re.sub("&#?\w+;", fixup, text)

While typing up this response, I just noticed that copying and pasting from a codebox on this forum doesn't seem to retain the indentations, which will break the script.  I've uploaded the script code here:
http://codeviewer.org/view/code:5143
Just use the dropdown in the upper-right to download the code with indentations intact.  Again, rename it to *.py and place it in the appropriate directory.
