18 .B cplay
19 is a front-end for various audio players. It aims to provide a
20 user-friendly interface with simple filelist and playlist
21 control. Invoking
22 .B cplay
23 without any options puts you in the filelist in which you
24 can navigate around looking for audio files. When you
25 specify an audio file,
26 .B cplay
27 automatically adds it to the playlist which can be accessed
28 by pressing the tabulator key.

36 mpg321, splay, mpg123 or madplay), Ogg Vorbis (through ogg123), and
