+xhippo is a generic playlist manager program for a variety of UNIX
+sound players. It's been shown to work with mpg123, bplay, mikmod,
+s3mod, tracker, xmp and timidity, and should work with more-or-less
+anything that can take a filename on the command line. It is capable
+of automatically deciding which player to use depending on a file's
+extension; the defaults are set in a config file. It uses textual
+playlist files, which are easily generated with the "find" or "locate"
+utilities. xhippo's interface is very loosely modelled on the
+shareware "HippoPlayer" player for the Amiga.
