I couldn't seem to find a current wxPython program to control an MPD
server, and undeterred by the thousands of available web-based, pyGtk,
PyQt, KDE, Gnome, win32, java, or command-line python clients, I
thought it would be fun to have another.
So... because I wanted an exercise in multithreading, I ended up
writing a major mode for peppy that contains a threaded wrapper around
py-libmpdclient2 to keep the UI responsive while waiting for a reply
from the MPD server.
Peppy is also a text editor framework in the XEmacs mold, with major
modes, multiple top level windows, etc. But, I haven't done much with
the text editing parts, so this update (besides bug fixes and
architectural changes) is mostly about the MPD major mode.
