Winamp Shortcuts

Winamp Keyboard Shortcuts

Thought this was pretty cool and wanted to share. It’s no big secret and easy to find, but Winamp has a ton of helpful keyboard shortcuts. I’ve copy and pasted the list below, but in case you need to find the list again…

Open your Winamp player, go to your toolbar and click on Help > About Winamp. A dialog box opens, and you’ll see four tabs: Winamp, Credits, Keyboard shortcuts, and Version history. Click on the keyboard shortcuts tab
