Pug’s Place

a useful tool for filling CDs/DVDs/Mp3 players with what IMMS already knows you like.

IMFavorites queries the Intelligent Multimedia Management System database to figure out your favorite songs, then symlinks them to a place of your choice.

What the?

If you’ve used IMMS for more than a few days, it’s already gotten a decent idea of what kind of music you like and what kind of music you do not like. That information is stored within its database, dripping with desire to be useful. This program simply uses that information to find your favorite songs (as IMMS knows them), and then do the hard work of compiling a CD, DVD, Mp3 player full of your favorites for you.

Anyway, that’s what I was doing last night when I should have been doing more homework.

So this project joins my GKrellM Countdown Plugin, my University of Florida customized replacement perl script for the GKrellWeather plugin for GKrellM, and P-Guide, a WYSIWYG UI generator for PUI as being >95% PugCode. Of course, HID-commander will be an important one once I get it working. As will Gpremacy… Some day…
