Is there a simple way to print out my playlists for hardcopy? I don't want to mess around parsing a CSV file for the info I need, just simply print out the playlists that are displayed in jEmplode.

Thanks,
JeffreyB

There was this. I had limited success with it once I got around the initial problems.

I also wrote a very primitive perl script myself that would print the hierachy of songs according to playlists. Didn't work very well since the CSV file often included commas in song titles and that buggered it up. If you're a programmer and want to have a crack yourself, I can probably dig it up.

I developed a DSSSL stylesheet for this purpose that you can download from RioCar.Org.

To use it, you'll need to export as XML from jEmplode, then simply process the XML with the stylesheet using Jade (or your favourite DSSSL processor, if different). The included Makefile will automate it all for you, and the comments explain the prerequisites and how to customise (for example, I like to generate an A6-size booklet for the car glove-box). You can even print out a subset of your playlists by using any FID you like as the root.
