CLAmp is a small application that has the main purpose to drive Winamp through command line in a simple way.

This program is standalone :
· no external piece of software required (DLL, Winamp Plug-in etc.)
· no install procedure : just download it and run

This program is safe :
· does not write to disk,
· does not access registry
· does not access network (local or Internet),
· does not interacts with other programs running (except Winamp of course...)so no special priviledges are required to use it.

This program requires very small amount of resources.
