API + External App - is this possibe?

Hello

. I've been working on using the Winamp API to control Winamp, however I've got a few questions and I'd like to know if they are possible to be done from an external program (read: not a winamp plugin). Thanks for any and all help, and Happy Holiday!

1) Retrieve the song's artist and title of the currently playing song.
-or-
Retrieving the text in Winamp's scrollbar.

2) Deleting a single item from Winamp's playlist.

3) Playing a file (given the file's path and filename), not enqueueing the file.

I think that's it for now.

Thanks again.
