Only works in the operating system and directory structure where you were when you wrote the link; 2. No ability to stop playback, pause, etc, unless you run the program as a GUI, which means (horror!) doing something outside Emacs. > VLC works great for this too. In windows VLC works as a shell command, but doesn't work with Bongo. > P.S. Thanks for the link to BONGO--the EMACS "buffer media player". > I made my own "buffer media player" and have used it for many years; but, BONGO.el is wayly kuul too! You're welcome. Are you aware of EMMS, it seems to be Bongo's main rival (I haven't tried it). Paul
