Description
Dear Audacious Team,
I started to code a year ago, and bec I need m-tags support in audacious, I decided to start a little project where I will try to code a plug-in for audacious that implements m-tags support.
All I need is a starting point, like an (official) documentation on how to create audacious plug-ins, or if it'd be wiser to create a stand alone first, etc..
It's more a less a little project to learn, thank you for your help!

I'm surprised no one on the Aud. team has responded to this yet. I'm not a team member but a casual contributor, and I do work with the Audacious code, mostly for a fork I started years ago (which I won't get into here), including a feature which stores metatag data into text-based "tag" files for formats that don't support embedded tags. It doesn't involve nor need a plugin though. After a cursory glance at this format though, it doesn't look like a big stretch to create an option to do this in mtag-format instead of the custom "tag=data\n" fmt. I use now. However, it looks like this format could also be used as a possible playlist file format option as well, which would need a new playlist plugin similar to the m3u plugin. Anyway, I could work with you some on this - drop me an email (see my redmine profile), I'd be curious to see your project!
Regards,

This doesn't sound like a good project for a beginner, in my opinion. If Jim wants to help with it, that's fine -- please submit a pull request when you have something far enough along to want feedback.
