ESD stands for Enlightened Sound Daemon. It is a sound server for Linux and Unix-like operating systems. It provides a sound API that can be used by applications to play audio. ESD is also a mixer, which means that it can be used to control the volume of different audio streams.

ESD is not a command-line tool. It is a daemon that runs in the background and provides a sound API to applications. To use ESD, you need to configure your applications to use it.

If you are looking for a command-line tool to play audio on Linux, you can use mpg123 or mplayer. These tools can play audio files from the command line and do not require ESD.

Here are some additional things to note about ESD:

• ESD is a sound server.

• ESD provides a sound API to applications.

• ESD is a mixer.

• ESD is not a command-line tool.

• You can use mpg123 or mplayer to play audio on Linux without ESD.
