WorkBone is an interactive TEXT-MODE control panel for playing
  audio CDs under Linux. It is based on the modules "hardware.c"
  and "struct.c" from the elaborate X11 CD program known as
  WorkMan. WorkBone is intended as a minimalist interactive tool
  for navigating audio CDs under text-mode Linux, and does not
  incorporate many of the advanced features of WorkMan such as
  shuffle play and databases. However, for those who just want to
  play music with minimal fuss, WorkBone is quite sufficient.

  WorkBone uses the numeric keypad as a control panel to allow you
  to move track to track, play, stop, pause, and resume playing of
  audio CDs. Additionally, the running times are continuously updated
  and displayed. Make sure you have your NUM LOCK engaged when using
  WorkBone. A template is displayed to guide you, and pushing the
  DEL key on the numeric pad will bring up a help screen.

  WorkBone works with my Mitsumi FX001D CD Rom drive, but your
  mileage with other drives may vary. Only generic calls and
  functions are used as per WorkMan proper itself. The display code
  was written specifically for the Linux console and uses VT102 
  escape sequences. Portability was not a concern :-)

  I have uploaded WorkBone-0.1.tar.gz to sunsite.unc.edu where it
  should eventually be found in /pub/Linux/apps/sound. I have also
  uploaded it to tsx-11.mit.edu.

  Enjoy.
