NAME¶
xbrlapi - X11 BrlAPI helper for Linux/Unix
SYNOPSIS¶
xbrlapi [
option ...]
DESCRIPTION¶
xbrlapi connects to a
BrlAPI server in order to provide it with
the ID of the
X11 window which currently has focus. It also simulates
X keysyms from braille key presses (else brltty would simulate them
using a qwerty keyboard).
OPTIONS¶
Options are processed sequentially from left to right. If an option is specified
more than once, or in case of a conflict, the rightmost specification takes
precedence.
The following options are supported:
- -b [host][:port] (--brlapi=)
- The BrlAPI server to connect to.
- -a string (--auth=)
- The BrlAPI authorization/authentication string.
- -d display (--display=)
- The X display to connect to. If not specified, the content of the
DISPLAY environment variable is used.
- -q (--quiet)
- Do not write any text to the braille device.
- -h (--help)
- Print a command line usage summary and then exit.
- -H (--full-help)
- Print a thorough command line usage summary and then exit.
