 +====== play .m3u playlists via http ======
 +
 +All my mp3s are stored on my filesever. Normally I just mount the mp3 directory on my current workstation (either via NFS or Samba). I have some playlists too which store all files with relative paths (relative to the playlist location). This works fine.
 +
 +But sometimes I want to have an easy way to listen to a playlist without mounting anything (eg. when using the laptop). So I made the mp3 files and playlists available on my local Apache webserver and use the following short CGI to get a playlist with http adresses to the file.
 +
 +<code perl>
 +#!/usr/bin/perl
 +
 +$WEBDIR = '/var/www';
 +$WEBSERVER = 'xerxes';
 +
 +use CGI;
 +use File::Basename;
 +
 +print "Content-type: audio/x-mpegurl\r\n\r\n";
 +
 +$q = new CGI();
 +
 +$list = $q->param('list');
 +$dir  = dirname($list);
 +$list = $WEBDIR.'/'.$list;
 +
 +open (LIST, $list) or die("Could not read $list");
 +@m3u = <LIST>;
 +close LIST;
 +
 +foreach $file (@m3u){
 + $file = 'http://'.$WEBSERVER.$dir.'/'.$file;
 + chomp($file);
 + print "$file\n";
 +}
