NAME

       lircrc - application-specific remotes signals configuration

DESCRIPTION

       lircrc  is the last LIRC configuration point in the flow of events from the kernel to the application. It
       provides  a  way  to  translate  the  application-agnostic  events  which  lircd   makes   available   on
       /var/run/lirc/lircd   to   application-specific  strings.   The  translation  is  invoked  by  LIRC-aware
       applications by using the the lirc_code2char() routine in the lirc_client library.

       The lircrc event mapping is not only mapping from a remote  event  to  an  application  string.  It  also
       supports  a  variety  of  functionality  such  as  repeat  suppression, modes, long keypresses and button
       sequences.

       The default location for lircrc is ~/.config/lircrc with a  global  fallback  in  /etc/lirc/lircrc.  Many
       applications which uses the lircrc translations have private locations for the file.

       The programmatic interface to the lircrc functionality is described in the Client API manual, see below

       The file format is described in the configuration manual, see below.
