Description: This script generates a "tagcloud" from your Amarok database by score or times played
Requirements: *Python (tested with 2.4) *apsw (http://www.rogerbinns.com/apsw.html) *python-tk
Usage: Execute to use the (crappy) GUI or via commandline: amarokcloud.py /path/to/collection.db datatype scoringtype
Your collection is usually at /home/user/.kde/share/apps/amarok/collection.db Datatype is the data which you want to generate the cloud from. It's either genre or artist Scoringtype decides how to calculate the score
The GUI is horrible, I know, but it does it's job and I don't have time to learn PyQt
This is a very good idea! - It should be added as a basic feature of KDE. - Tag clouds are usefull and needed also in digikam, ocular and they offer more possibilities to lots of other programs as well.

It is a good idea. Maybe you can create a version like the playlist generator which publishes the cloud as an HTML which can be accessed using the browser. http://localhost:4774/playlist --> playlist http://localhost:4774/scorecloud --> cloud
