Summary: Yet another plugin for Gaim that displays xmms track info

Initial Comment:
  I made this plugin for Gaim because I wasn't able to
find an existing working, suitable alternative. I
actually made it by looking at other script models -
credit for those goes to their authors. More details
are in the script.

  I decided to make this because most of the scripts
out there use  the info-pipe plugin for xmms. For
unknown reasons, it makes my version of xmms crash, so
I was unable to use it, therefore I was unable to use
the (gaim) plugins that depended on it.
  I did not know one bit of pearl, although I know some
c programming - but after reading some documentation, I
was able to make this.

  The plugin (a simple pearl script) should be
compatible with future gaim releases, and it should be,
in a large percent :), independent to the xmms version.
Also, it should work on most linux distributions/versions.

  Instalation instructions are inside the script - just
open it with a text editor.

Have a nice one.

Ok, a little update. I added a couple of additionnal checks.
I also tried to change the away message, and failed
lamentably :)).
