Well.. hmm I dont know whats wrong, when I add a tune by dragging it to
the main window it gets played but then it starts loading more songs.
If I press refresh and have only one song on the playlist it will also
start to load songs.
Hmm.. I will delete my Choices/MusicBox dir , it could be some old
config that is the problem.

This is about CTRL and shift that I didnt know about,

I cant find anything when I search debian archives for flac or wav. When
I googled I found this player, Axflac, which is written in python and
uses the flac binary to play .flac files. It would cool if there where a
wrapper function so if I wanted flac ape and some obscure format, I just
add the lines to run and stop and stuff in a xmlfile that is read by
MusicBox. 

if( filetype not (ogg or mp))
{
	if(filtype = flac)
	{
		playflacfromcommandfoundinXMLfile('settings.xml');
		settemporalpositionforuseintheprogresbar('settings.xml');
        }
	if(filetyp = ape)
	{
		playape
	}
}

It would be cool if you could set what you wanted shown. Play Next and
progressbar.

That would be great, you should know that 99% of the code is yours. I
took your AppRun and deleted stuff and changed one row. ;)
