Converting a playlist into a text file.

I've been experimenting some stuff with Winamp 2.0 series, what I'd like to do is take the playlist file, and parse it somehow and add all the song names and titles to a text file so i can read from it. I'd like to do this myself, but does anyone have an Idea how I'd start this out? I've checked PSCode and I've seen one program that exports the playlist into a .HTML file. I don't need something that exclusive. Much help appreciated

Thanks!

Just look at how it exports it to an HTML file, and change the file type?

Open a playlist file (pls, m3u) with notepad.  If I recall correctly, the format should be pretty easy to see and parse.
