i'll be happy to answer any questions you have. chomp is a handy function that removes the newline ('\n') character from the end of a string. it's necessary 'cause i'm reading this stuff from a text file that has each song name separated by a newline.

and i'm not sure if you're familiar with perl's file i/o, but if you're not then i can explain that each time you see "<ALBUMDATA>" that just reads a line from the file i have open. and in the loop ("while (<ALBUMDATA>") the line from the file is read into a default variable ($_).

that doesn't sound like a bad idea at all. all i've ever needed is some more motivation--my big problem is coding guis. i'm able to, that's not the problem. i know how to work with pygtk and wxpython.. it's just such a chore.
