Warning: this software hasn't been updated for a long time and most likely won't be updated in the future - proceed with care.

Disclaimer: chosen implementation approach is broken by design partly due to the way the component evolved and conceived, but mostly due to my limitations as a programmer. Provided sources are not meant to be taken as an example. If you're researching for ways of interacting with foobar2000 by HTTP requests, take a look at foo_catnap and this discussion: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=104493.
