I found this trick out a while back while running a program named Music 0.1.app. It was the first attempt at skinning mpg123 for OS X ... enough history though. Basically by typing in this command:
find ~/Music/* -type f -name '*.mp3' > ~/Music/Playlist.m3ua playlist is created in your music directory that contains every single music file in your music directory. Play this file via mpg123 by typing:
mpg123 -@ ~/Playlist.m3uThis is a standard MP3 playlist, so basically any MP3 program can read it. Obviously you can alter this command to list other files such as .mov, .jpeg, etc. Thought this would be helpful for some people...
