i will soon upload a new version of this. if you wish to help you need to know how exactly winamp5 skin is working and need to explain me how wasabi do to handle scripts :).. i'm working on reading the wasabi code for moment to see if i could take some part to help me to have a good virtual computer to manage skin with scripts !

I heard wasabi didn't open its scripts for winamp3 skin processing.
( see this http://www.sosdg.org/~larne/w/LibWAL )
So, I don't know exactly how skin works.
Could you give me some reference, article or description of winamp3 skin?
you may send me your work about winamp3 skin.

Anyway... this is so interesting to me.

Ok for sure the best website to learn winamp3/5 skin system is :
http://frisbeemonkey.com/winamp3/index.php

also the www.winamp.com website (the dev part) could help a bit specialy the part of winamp5 skin description :)
Best is also to unzip .wal files and read xml from skin.xml to others.

Try also to retreive an old WasabiSDK (i have the 499c) to see and learn wasabi things. i think this last step will be essential to continue and progress my loader to handle maki scripts.

A good learn could also be to de-assemble the maki.exe file and let us know how this compiler do to transform .m to .maki compiled script files.

So easy to tell, not so easy to do :)

How about this document? I read it.
(http://winamp.com/nsdn/winamp/skinning/modern/tutorials/Skinning%20Tutorial.pdf).

yeah a good document that explain the skin format, it's a good start :)

long time no see...
My computer was crashed, so I cann't do this any more for few weeks.
I'll buy a new one today :D.
If someone improve this for few weeks,
Could you explain me any improvement of about winamp skin plugin?

trying to load the default winamp5 skin. for moment i only have a black window :-/

but with a little modification of the xml parser i think i will could load it correctly :) just need time.
