NAME¶
tempest_for_eliza - play songs with your computer monitor and AM radio
SYNOPSIS¶
tempest_for_eliza pixelclock x 1000000 HDisplay
VDisplay HTotal radio frequency music file
DESCRIPTION¶
This program displays patterns on a computer monitor that can produce musical
tones on AM radios tuned to the proper frequency.
OPTIONS¶
pixelclock x 1000000,
HDisplay,
VDisplay, and
HTotal
all should be the same each time for your monitor. Use the
xvidtune(1)
application to determine these values.
As the name suggests, for the pixelclock parameter multiply the result given by
xvidtune(1) by 1000000.
A usual sensible value for
radio frequency is 10000000, or 10Mhz.
EXAMPLES¶
$ tempest_for_eliza 119000000 1680 1050 1840 10000000
/usr/share/doc/tempest-for-eliza/songs/forelise
Start TFE on a monitor with pixelclock 119, 1680x1050 resolution, and a VDisplay
of 1840, to be accessed in the 10Mhz band.
