thats why i would advice a forth 2 b integrated in2 mplayer.
all these parsing stuff could go away & all the config files
(codecs, keybindings, config) and also the commandline can b
given in a common "language", which is infact a whole
programming language, but it doesnt have much syntax. it only
consist of whitespace separated words or numbers. why forth &
not anything else? well... because it "is/can b" brutally
simple => easily comprehensible => maintainable => absolutely
bugfree. any 6yr old child can learn it within 1hr @ a pretty
advanced level & actually everybody already know it @ a basic
level... coz u dont have 2 do anything else but put words &
numbers after eachother, like 5 fps 4/3 aspect png ovc ...
