Hi amol9,

I came accross your tool and I found it very useful. While playing aroung, I decided that some small adaptions would make it even more better. Please take a look and decide whether you want to accept my proposals.

Hi,

Thanks for trying out and improving vlc-ctrl. 🙂

Right now, for personal reasons, I'm on a rather long break from GitHub and programming. So, I won't be able to review and merge the changes for at least a few months.

I'll take a look as soon as I get back to it.

Regards, Amol.

Hi Amol, thanks for your reply. I didn't expect that we look into my PR within days as your last commit has been years ago. However, if you may find at some time to look into it I will appreciate it!

Thanks, Daniel

@pseudo-usama : I don't own a Mac so I have absolutely no skills on this field and also for Windows, I'm the right one to do that.
