Caboose

I’ve been playing about with a display of what I’m listening to on my PC, like everyone else has. I picked up some PHP code for doing this.

The server end works fine but the PHP script that runs on my PC was inserting lots of NUL characters in the list of songs, not good. As my knowledge of PHP is minimal I had a quick go at working out the problem before giving up in horror when I discovered there’s no built-in debugger in PHP.

I rewrote the script in Perl, I’m not going to publish it because it’s a quick hack and pretty ugly.

Until I get round to rewriting my main index template the only place you can see what I’m listening to is here.

Update: My server seems to be suffering from problems, almost lost this post…
