Playing real player files

[Art Alexion]

Mark, please don't hijack threads.  It isn't good for the list and it isn't 
good for you.

It isn't good for the list because many of us use threaded mail readers like 
kmail and thunderbird.  Changing topics in the middle of a thread makes the 
topic difficult to follow.

It isn't good for you because a person with an answer to your question may be 
ignoring a particular thread that doesn't interest them. <Ctrl + Del>, the 
irrelevant thread is gone and along with it, your unrelated question that may 
have just solved yesterday.
