mplayer
Here's a quick mplayer question. mplayer is the default player for mp3 files on my system. Fine. But when I double click on one it runs in hte background with no terminal or interface, so I can't stop it without opening a new terminal window, doing a ps -A and killing the mplayer process manually. Anyone have a bvetter solution?
Is there an open a new terminal option that I'm missing that I cound just tack onto the end of the init? I mean, i can always open a window and run mplayer /path/to/song but I do like my double clicking.
This didn't go over too well in linuxnewbies so I thought I'd ask here. It applies to any non-gui based application that you can double click, actually. I'd be happy if I could even create an icon that I could close out. it's just a pain to have to kill it manually. And I hate GMplayer.
