Re^2: Prototype - Command line, controllable, media playerby sv87 (Acolyte) |

A command-line media player is also convenient sometimes from a resources standpoint. In my personal experience, I've found command-line tools like a CLI media player, for instance, very good from a memory/CPU usage standpoint. They tend to use a lot less of it. :-) And I like the basic Unix philosophy of 'small, specialized tools suited to do one task, and to do it well.' Whether I would use a media player coded in Perl however, that I don't know. Still, an interesting use of Perl nonetheless. :-) It really is the Swiss army knife of programming languages.
Reach out and grep someone.
