It has command line options for loading/enqueuing files into the playlist, it can start playback immediately (without having to press the play button on the gui), and you can terminate a running instance from the command line, again, without needing to press the little X button in the upper-right corner. Basically this is what you will need to run for one user hitting a link (I don't know how this relates to Mozilla, but I guess you are able to execute something like a script when a user hits a link): $ aqualung -Q (terminate an already running instance if there is one, and exit) $ aqualung -o alsa -L <some-soundfile> (put file in the playlist and start playing it back immediately, through alsa in this case.) Perhaps you will want to put these two in a script and execute that from Mozilla. Just a suggestion. I'm glad to help if you decide to give it a try. Tom
