mplayer

If you are trying to launch Mplayer from within Lynx, I'd suggest editing
your .mailcap so that application/mpegurl is mapped to "mplayer -playlist
%s."  I.E.
 
audio/mpegurl; mplayer -playlist %s
audio/x-mpegurl; mplayer -playlist %s

This seems to work for me.

If you find a playlist link using links and mplayer starts, how do you get
it to play?  I get some kind of an error, which If I find the time, I'll
send along later.
