Ok, cool.  Thanks -- that will be a helpful feature!

On the subject of mplayer and full screen, I wish it supported a "switch
video mode on full screen" option like fxtv so -fs would be usable as-is.
My video mode res is smaller than my desktop, so I need to use an xsetvmode
wrapper kludge to get -fs to really be "full screen".
