It's in (note the uppercase 'R' and 'P'):

    ~/.RealPlayer/presets.rnx

Although realplay doesn't seem to offer a way to query/set the contents of this
file right now, it must have done so in the past. My copy of the file is
timestamped October 11, 1999.

Why not names (which are much easier for blind users to remember)? The
"presets.rnx" file even has two variables, "Category" and "Title", for this
very purpose. "Category" implements the upper level of a two-level hierarchy,
and "Title" implements the lower. I've attached a sample of the file to this
message.

Why? Either pipe it through $PAGER (more if not set), or just rely on
shift-pageup for scroll-back.
