When I wanna play a link over the internet through elinks, I've got my mime types and mailcap so mplayer gets launched and that seems to work fine but I can't get the keyboard to focus to mplayer. I'm sort of locked out. I can't control elinks while mplayer is running and I can't get into mplayer. When the file finishes, I get control of elinks back. Otherwise, I have to go into another console to kill mplayer if I don't wanna wait for the file to end. I think I'm missing an option some place to get this to work right. Can anyone help me out? Thanks. P.S. I should note that I'm using version 0.10.5 right and plan to put .6 later this week. I'm doing all this in a text mode. Is there any way to gain control of the media player program after elinks launches it? Thanks. -- HolmesGrown Solutions The best solutions for the best price! http://ld.net/?holmesgrown
