PATCH: _qtplay

[Jesse W]

qtplay is a comand-line wrapper around Quick Time for Mac OS X. (See 
http://home.earthlink.net/~rainbowflight/#qtplay)  I don't know if we 
want to include a mac-only program in the standard suite, but I thought 
I'd send it in in any case, in case it's wanted.  Let me know if there 
are any questions or suggestions...

That'd be what the Completion/Darwin/ tree is for, no?

Here's a suggestion:

} +     "(-)-f[read files as playlist]:*:playlists:_files" \

Surely not all files are playlists?  Is there some pattern that could
be used to identify playlist files, rather than completing all files?

(Yes, I know I'm replying to a *two year old* message, but, hey, I have 
a little backlog with my email. ;-) )

I don't think there's any way to do that, as qtplay will accept *any* 
file and simply try to pull filenames out of it.  I was hoping to 
gently suggest to people the *purpose* of the file, but really, the 
format (and extension) is entirely undefined.
