Fortunately, it seems nobody broke their systems with the script. If there's no need of improvements, I'll put it on hold as a proof of concept, along with the attempts to the interspersed-track variants. Comments on this are welcome anytime. For newer testers: cd ~/tmp wget -O testscript https://pastebin.com/raw/Y2GxuzaY dos2unix testscript chmod a+x testscript less testscript # ---> mind the configurable countdown_step echo ; echo ./testscript -h

About the aforementioned playlist behavior with cue sheets: now it correctly moves to the next track, but sometimes, after having played one from a regular file, it doesn't start the next one from a cue sheet, just stops playing. When this has happened, Strawberry was not the active window; it had been some time without user interaction. The media files of the stopped tracks were both flac and mp3. I'll report if I find more info. By the way, thanks also for fixing the UTF-8 encoding.

Yes, that's a good option for the currently played track. But as far as I know, it won't work for the selected track(s): we can't get that list with Strawberry commands or from dbus. That's why I had done that dirty hack to Clementine's context menu. It got and sent the selection to kdialog, a KDE's zenity alternative that worked like you propose. Another option, which I still use, is drag & drop to a .desktop file or plasma widget that deals with the list. And you're also right that it would be harder for less experienced and non *nix users to do it. Much easier is "Hey, download my .bat file and create a new User command called ReplayGain that executes C:\somewhere\file.bat %S".
