Description:
 An amaroK script for downloading Guitar Tabs
This python script can download guitar tabulatures
from the song,
which is played, for you. After downloading, the
tab can 
directly be opened by a program of your choice.
In this Version, only GuitarPro files from
MySongBook.com 
are supported, but in later versions, support for
other 
pages and for the PowerTab format will be
implemented.
If you find bugs, or want to have a feature
implemented, 
just send me a mail and let me know.
The textbased browser "Lynx" is required in order
to use 
this plugin. This will perhaps change in later
versions.

How it works
In the configuration dialog, you can say if you
want to keep 
the tabs that get downloaded, and the location in
which they should 
be downloaded to. If you don't want to keep them,
they will be loaded in 
a temporary directory, and then deleted. You are
also enabled to define
the file format of your choice (GP3 or GP4) and
define the command to open
the tab with.

If you want to open them in DGuitar
(http://dguitar.sourceforge.net), 
you can write something like this:
cd ~/DGuitar&&java -jar dist/DGuitar.jar

Please note, that you need at least the DGuitar
developer version from 23.12.2005, 
because this is the first version which supports
parameter passing.

If you want to use the original GuitarPro program
emulated in wine, 
you can type something like this:
cd ~/".wine/dosdevices/c:/Programme/Guitar Pro
4"&&wine GP4.exe

This TabLoader script will pass the downloaded tab
as a parameter.

To download a tab, just right-click on the playing
song, 
chose "TabLoader" and then "mysongbook.com".

In the TODO list:
Add support for PowerTab files?
The tabs to download should be chosen based on the
rating.
The user should have the possibility to choose
which of the available tabs he want.

Please give me feedback.

Have fun.

Sven Rech

Changelog:
 0.35: Sorry that it took so long, but it seems
that MySongBook.com changed their design again.
With this new version, TabLoader should work
again.

0.3. MySongBook.com changed their internal design,
so that this Plugin didn't work anymore. I fixed
this.
Hope this won't happen in the future very often...
