SYNOPSIS

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


DESCRIPTION

       irpty connects to lircd to receive infrared codes and con­
       verts 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.
