Hello
I am new to python and I am really a bad programmer...
As a linux user, I use quodlibet for listening to music. Quodlibet
allows me to write plugins in python.
I am trying to write a plugins to burn a playlist by using cdrecord, and
this either in dao or tao mode.
The basic of this plugin is the following:
- make a temp directory
- convert the songs in my playlist into wave files in the temp directory
using mplayer and renaming them with 3 digits number so that the order
of my playlist is conserved
- normalize the wave files
- burn the cd
- delete the temp directory.
At the time, I have a working solution (not fully developped by
myself...), but in this solution os.system is used to start the
different shell commands and the commands do not have a & at the end.
Therefore during the whole execution of the plugin, quodlibet is not
responsive.
What I would like to is program the whole such that I can use & at the
end of the shell commands and each command to be executed one after the
other! (I tried to put & simply at the end of each shell command with
the result that each where started at the same time)
Here is the plugin:

and yeah, please consider that I am new to python and do understand
something to the thread!
Thanks in advance
