mpc123 - your handy Musepack audio player SYNOPSIS
mpc123 [options] file(s) DESCRIPTION
mpc123 is a command-line player for the Musepack audio compression format. mpc123 reads mpc audio files and decodes them to the devices specified on the command line. During playback, you can pass to the next playlist element (or a random one if one of the -z and -Z options were used, see below) by send- ing SIGINT to the process, thus usually pressing ^C will act as a "next-button" for the player. OPTIONS
