1. It is proof of concept - to show access to LMS CLI and generate a
text file with currently playing artist, album and title.

2. If you want notification on changes you use the CLI command "listen
1" - then unsolicited changes will be sent. The script then has to
change into a loop whose action looks at strings received, waits for a
"newmetadata" message, then does inquiry
(look at LMS WebGUI /Help/Technical Information/Command Line Interface) 

3. Lua - the scripts won't have to do complicated stuff and there are
plenty of resources. I don't know Lua either - I just cobbled it
together. KISS principle.

To get used to CLI,  I'd advise play around using the "telnet" command -
just make sure your commands end with CTRL/J - CLI will only respond t0
lines which end with CTRL/J and not "Return".
