I use moc regularly. It's great at what I want: play all the music files in a directory, then stop, while allowing me to pause, skip, or start over. It does other things too, but it excels at that. It has a local client-server arrangement, so the server part (started automatically when you start mocp) runs in the background and the client can go away and come back to issue specific commands. That includes one-off commands, so it's easy to integrate into scripts or GUIs. -dsr-
