What up, yo. This is the readable manual for Wasabi. This is not the reference manual. This is the one you print out and read on the toilet. The other one documents API calls and things.
What is Wasabi? Wasabi stands for Winamp System Architecture Building Interface. Or something. Whatever. I just like wasabi a lot. The point is it┤s a kick-ass system for creating Winamp (and other players).
It consists of a main kernel (studio.exe), a variable number of additional user-added components, and a user-selected skin. Nearly all aspects of the user interface and experience are configurable and customizable.
The kernel
At startup, studio.exe starts up various services. First it creates the base API pointer and other services:
- component API
- window tracker (handles docking the various windows created by skins and components)
