great player
Herrie has a number of nice features: nice split-screen interface, easy file-based configuration, and straightforward filesystem navigation. About the only downside I encountered was use with xterm - difficult to navigate, etc. - recommended to use konsole or another term with color support, etc.

This looks like a text mode or TUI application, rather than a command line application.
