Upper
Corner Box Menu
There is a small symbol that resembles
an audio waveform in the upper-left corner. If you click on this little
symbol, a menu that allows the user to change almost every aspect
of the Winamp player appears.
Many things that you
can do on this menu can be either done through buttons on the Winamp
interface or through the use of quick keys.

Song Display
The visual display in the upper-left
corner shows either the time remaining or the length of a song, as

of the Vis display and displays the letters O, A, I, D, and V which

Display
Winamp has several displays and some
buttons that tell about the file playing. The top display lists the
name of the file and any other information imbedded in the file.
Right-clicking pulls up
a menu allowing you to change file information, jump to another file
in the playlist, jump to a specific time in the current song, and
turn on and off the autoscrolling of the song name.
