This is one I've been on the lookout for.
Pianobar plays your pandora.com stations from the command line. BYE BYE FLASH :D

There are some vague directions for various flavors of linux on the home page.
Here's how I installed on Ubuntu 10.4 )

A quick tip for bash users that I use all the time:

If you have a command in your history that you want to re-execute or edit, but don't want to keep tapping the up key, hit Ctrl-R and then start typing part of the line. bash will find the last line matching your input on the fly. If it's not the one you want, either keep typing until it is, or hit Ctrl-R and bash will show you the next match.

Once you've got it, you have two options: to execute, you can then just press RETURN; to edit, use a movement key (left/right arrows, Home/End, etc) and bash will drop you back to a standard command line with the line you just found.

This trick also works if you know the middle of the line but not the beginning, since bash searches the entire line.

[edited to add: BTW, Fey, do you realise that nobody can add new tags to posts in this community? The only tags in here are ones first used by you. :)]
