This script shows the text files from the same directory of a song which makes it mostly useful for checking the information contained in an album directory.
When starting up the script, you can right click on a song in your playlist and select "txtView > Open". This will popup the dialog.
Within the dialog you can show the files through the menu and open them with your favorite application. For example you can edit them with GVIM or open an M3U/PLS file in XMMS ;) Note: the run dialog doesn't let you pass arguments to the apps, so opening the file with vi in a terminal is not possible.
If you are looking for the font Lucida Console P, get into your ~/.fonts directory and wget http://home.online.no/~aageli/luconP.ttf

I don't know how to set the height of a line in the QTextEdit object. If you have pointers, please leave a message, thank you.

- Option Wrap/No Wrap and Fixed/non fixed chars in the menu
- Using the built-in functions from Python unlike the QDir/file/etc...
- Open With ... in /usr/bin by default
- Use of mimetypes + filename to guess whatever it is a text file or not (I tried magic, but my first note was that it created a new dependence and second.. it didn't do well the job, my default /etc/magic file was empty, at the opposite mimetypes is builtin and does a good job)
* 0.0.3 2005-02-07
- The window is opened as modal (no entry in the taskbar)
- Resize the window now works
- Use the font "Lucida Console P" for the special leet characters
- Checkboxes in the File menu so we know which one is viewed
- Changed the interface:
- Status bar with the name of the current file
- A sub-menu for the files
- 'Open with...' Opens the current file with a program
* 0.0.2 2005-12-16
- TextEdit: NoWrap and Monospace family
- Add a menu bar, remove the buttons

Woha, I was waiting for this very application. I have a selfmade *.txt file in every directory that contains my own little review and some infos of the band. And your script is exactly what I was looking for, thank you tons!!
It would be cool to have the option with the txt file on the cover too though. Like, when I right-click on the cover --> open TxtView! Then it would be perfect!
(btw, why making a submenu when there is only one option? it makes no sense)
Another idea could be to add it to the context view at the botton and automatically open it and just hide the info when there is no txt/nfo file. Like, in the current tab at the botton prolly? ;)
However, you made my day! Fantastic, thank you so much!! :)
