ogg123 doesn=92t really have much to do with vorbis other than being in the=
 vorbis-tools
package. Vorbis support is implemented on top of the vorbisfile api similar=
 to how
this patch adds support for opus using opusfile.

ogg123 already provides support for playback of speex and flac, it seems a =
reasonable
extension to also have support for opus.
