Just catching up on some old mail and didn't see a answer to this. What
about just using the afplay command? You can do afplay -h to get the
parameters but basically you do afplay something.mp3 and it starts
playing it. Should handle any format QuickTime can do.

I have installed vlc and want to use it from the command line in
terminal.
As is no doubt known, it is a very complex application with many
functions.
All I want to do at this point is to give a command and have a mp3
file played. The same with a streaming audio source and podcasts is
of interest.
I have tried to do the mp3 function using what I gleaned from the man
page and some online discussion, no joy.
Can you help please?
