Practically every Unix system I've used since about 1990 sports a play command that simply plays back a file without the need for a special GUI app -- including Linux. Some of them even had record commands. I find this very convenient, especially when working with shell scripts and simple C programs. However, my OS X 10.1 Terminal app (which emulates a Unix terminal) doesn't do it. Does anyone know if more recent OS X systems do? Jim
