Is it possible to play a audio file from Unix? If so what format must it be in? What is the command to play it? How do you use that command?

mplayer ( http://www.mplayerhq.hu ) is a fairly common command line player. It can copy with most common and lots of uncommon media format.

mplayer myFile.mp3

There is no standard command in Unix that will play sound. Remember, traditional unix is a typewriter based OS. Unless the Unix is running on some workstations or PCs, most of them don't even have sound interfaces.
