      Port it then, you coward, lol.

      Winamp hasn’t seen real development in 20 years, and was exclusively a windows app at that time. What’re you expecting?

      My guess is this is a win32 program or a codebase that is very Windows specific. It was probably discarded because it did not port very well to other platforms. Again, just a guess.

      Still, it’s nice to see such a historicaly popular program get its source officially released.

      Audacious has support for Winamp skins and EQ presets, so you could call it a Winamp-like.
