NAME

       wmmixer - A mixer application designed for WindowMaker

DESCRIPTION

       wmmixer  is a mixer application designed for WindowMaker, although there is nothing in the
       program that makes it require WindowMaker, except maybe the NeXTStep  look  and  the  fact
       that it properly docks. It can be used with other window managers without problems.

SYNOPSIS

       wmmixer [options]

OPTIONS

       This  program  follows  the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with
       two dashes ('--'). A summary of options is included below.

       -d, --display <string>
              Attempt to open a window on the named X display. In the absence of  this option the
              display  specified  by the DISPLAY environment variable is used.

       -g, --geometry <string>
              geometry to use, e.g. +100+100 to place it at 100/100

       -h, --help
              show help text and exit.

       -v, --version
              show program version and exit.

       -w, --withdrawn
              run  the  application  in withdrawn mode. This is for use with WindowMaker or other
              window managers supporting docks (e.g. KDE)

       -a, --afterstep
              use smaller window (for AfterStep Wharf)

       -s, --shaped
              shaped window

       -l, --led-color <string>
              use the specified color for led, e.g. red, green, blue (default: green)

       -L, --led-highcolor <string>
              use the specified color for led-shading, e.g. red, green, blue (default: red)

       -b, --back-color <string>
              use the specified color for backgrounds, e.g. red, green, blue

       -m, --mix-device <string>
              use specified device (rather than /dev/mixer)

       -r, --scrollwheel <number>
              Set the volume increase/decrease when using the mouse wheel (default: 2)

       For backward compatibility the following obsolete options are still supported:

       -help  show help text and exit.

       -display
              attempt to open a window on the named X display

       -position
              geometry to use, e.g. +100+100 to place it at 100/100

USAGE

       All available channels on your soundcard's mixer are accessible with wmmixer. Most  common
       channels  are  identified with an appropriate icon.  Controls include a stereo (mono where
       appropriate) volume control and a recording source toggle button.

       Press the "<" and ">" arrow buttons to select a channel.  The icon identifies the  current
       channel  (a volume symbol with a question mark represents an unrecognised channel).  Click
       and/or drag the volume display to set channel volume.  There is a also  a  button  to  set
       recording sources.

CONFIGURATION

       Users  can  configure  wmmixer to suit their requirements by means of a ~/.wmmixer file. A
       commented example can be found in /usr/share/doc/wmmixer on Debian systems, and would be a
       good starting point
