wmstradio is a doc app that acts as a radio for streamed media. It reads a list of "channels" and allows them to be selected in a radio like interface. wmstradio launches Real Player connecting to the site that you select.

The only configuring wmstradio needs is a list of RealAudio sites to connect to. This is provided through a directory called ~/.wmstradio which contains link files to the sites. These link files are what you get when you try to save the link through a web browser. They are text files containing a URL to the server real audio streamer. The name of this file is used as the name of the chanel in the wmstradio display window.

What's New in This Release:
BUGFIX: shaifuljahari at yahoo.com pointed out that an empty .wmstradio directory caused the app to core on load. Fixed.
MISC: Empty directories are now detected at load, and during the lifetime of the app. Appropriate error message given on standard error and lcd.
DOCUMENTATION: CREDITS added.
