Add current time to the variables

Hey!
Amazing plugin, thanks for this! I often play mixes and it would be incredibly useful to be able to show the current time in the given track. Could this be added?
Hi @meza,
Interesting suggestion! I don't know how to do that yet. The plugin framework I'm using doesn't expose the current time. There may be a way to send a request from this plugin to Winamp to retrieve that information, but I will have to search around for it (the documentation isn't good).
I'll let you know if I find something.
This forum post makes it sound like the magic IPCCommand lparam number for elapsed time might be 105, which I believe because playback state is 104.
It is possible.
You can try replacing WinampNowPlayingToFile.dll with this development snapshot build and inserting something like {{Elapsed:m\:ss}} into your text template, or whatever other timespan format you like.
It works!
