Emacs and Radioparadise?

Posted by Doug Wed, 11 Dec 2002 19:33:00 GMT

I often like to listen to http://www.radioparadise.com (which is a great on-line radio station) with xmms. The problem is that xmms doesn’t display the artist and song info. Instead it scrolls: “RADIO PARADISEECLECTIC INTELLIGENT ROCKMUSIG INFO & LISTENER COMMUNITY AT COM”. A nice advertisement, but I’m already listening to radioparadise. You don’t have to convert me.

Since I’m always using XEmacs anyway, I thought I would write a little function that would go scrape the artist and title info from the web site and display it in the minibuffer. I know elisp isn’t a “real” Common Lisp and is often disparaged by those who use one; but, elisp still makes me happy!
