    corresponding python modules have to be installed. Play can
    use 'id3-py' or 'pyid3lib' for MP3 tags, and 'pyvorbis' for
    OGG tags.

    A playlist can contain URLs, but the playlist itself will have
    to be local. For mpeg streaming use splay or mplayer.

    It is also possible to pipe a playlist to play, as stdin will
    be reopened on startup unless it is attached to a tty.

    Remote control is available through /tmp/play-control-$USER.Authors:play is being maintained by Adrian C. After waiting over 2
    years for cplay's home, and code, to resurface it was finally
    forked. This exceptional software, originally written by Ulf
    Betlehem, should not be forgotten.

    MPlayer support was added to play from the excellent work done
    by Tom Adams and Tomi Pievilainen on GitHub.com.

    I basically just ripped it from
    http://git.sysphere.org/play/
    and modified it and put it on my github for convenience. I got tired
    of it not working the way I wanted it to. That is using only mplayer
    and then maybe to add gif/jpeg support again which I had working in
    a copy somewhere .... no credit to me what so ever.

    20220115 Some basic conversion to python3 has been done. I tested
    just several functions on Python 3.7. It does read the directory,
    it does play the m3u. More testing to be done. (dev@null)
