I type 'python player.py <url>' and I get '/bin/sh: syntax error: newline unexpected'

Any help?

Thanks (I`m trying to learn some basic linux commands, I`m a noob so bear with me)
Try to enclose the url with single quotes or double quotes, otherwise the shell tries to interpret the url as a command and this may be the source of your problem.
