hey dominique, this really looks good!

but look, i have a kind of feature request here:

i start alsaplayer with:

/usr/local/bin/alsaplayer -i gtk2 -r -o jack

and as soon alsaplayer appears in the screen, it begins to play the 
queue-files.
this is for me mostly not useful, cause not often, starting alsaplayer i 
want to listen to that, what i listened yesterday.
also, i think it could sometimes be dangerous, if alsaplayer begins to 
play himself, i would like to be able to make the decision about when 
alsaplayer starts to play by myself.

what do you think about that?

cheers,
doc
