For playing audio files like 'wav', you already have the program "play". Similarly, you have "rec" for recording. To play things like RealAudio, there's trplayer, a command-line realmedia player. You need the realplayer installed for trplayer to work. To make a browser like lynx launch the right thing (eg trplayer for mp3), you need two files: ".maincap" and ".mime.types" in your home directory. Someone has placed an archive of these two files on the speakup site, in the "goodies" area, called "mailcapstuff.tar.gz". This set of fiels will likely work as-is. If not, customize as needed. I believe everything you need is on the speakup site.
