IRPTY(1)                         User Commands                        IRPTY(1)

NAME
       irpty - pseudo tty driver

SYNOPSIS
       irpty [options] config_file -- program [args ...]

DESCRIPTION
       irpty connects to lircd to receive infrared codes and converts them to
       key strokes. E.g. type irpty ~/.lircrc -- workbone to control the CD-
       player program workbone. Of course you will have to create an
       appropriate config file for this purpose first. The config string will
       be passed to the desired application. Note that you can use escape
       sequences to specify non printable characters. Have a look at the
       .lircrc file format description for details.
