Added graphical configuration, at this point only for the grey theme but others will follow soon. (This has been nearly done for two weeks or more but was on hold due to the bugs with multithreading)

<b>Greyhound</b><br />
A PHP-based web interface for Amarok<br />

</div>
<p>I wrote Greyhound because of some issues I was having with other web
interface scripts freezing and not working right. Greyhound is my first
shot at writing Amarok scripts but it seems to work pretty well.
</p>
<p>Greyhound's interface is based on the WebControl script by Jonas Christian
Drewsen, André Kelpe, and Peter C. Ndikuwera. However unlike WebControl
Greyhound is written entirely in PHP, making it a bit more portable. This
script doesn't require an external web server to run, it has a relatively
basic built-in (but multi-threaded) server.</p>
<p>The script needs a browser with XmlHttpRequest (AJAX) support to work. It's
been tested on Firefox 3.0.1, Safari, and Opera 9.5.</p>
<p>It uses Smarty templates so you should be able to customize the HTML to
your needs. The template file is /themes/funkymonkey/playlist.tpl. There's
also a theme called iphone which is optimized for use on Apple's touch
screen based mobile devices. Now your iPod® can control music other than
its own :-P</p>

<b>License</b><br />
I was originally planning to place this into the public domain but decided to
make it <b>GPLv2</b> because it uses so many GPLv2 components.
</p>
<p>
<b>Known issues</b><br />
There are a few bugs in Greyhound that I haven't been able to iron out.
</p>
<ul>
<li>The socket it listens on doesn't get fully closed until about a minute
after you interrupt the script. This means that when you hit stop in
the script manager, you won't be able to start Greyhound again for about
60 seconds. I checked everything and socket_shutdown() and socket_close()
are being called properly, so I don't know why it's failing.</li>
<li>As of version 0.1 alpha 3, the playlist should be updated properly. If
you change your playlist but don't see the changes show up in Greyhound
after about 1-2 minutes, please report it as a bug. Please see
<a href="http://forum.enanocms.org/post/14/#p14">this forum post</a>
for more information.</li>
</ul>
