NAME

       lircrcd - daemon to handle consistent .lircrc state among client applications

SYNOPSIS

       lircrcd [options] config-file

DESCRIPTION

       lircrcd  reads  the  given  .lircrc  config  file  and synchronises the mode that the LIRC
       clients using this config file (irexec(1), irxevent(1) , etc.) are in. Using  lircrcd  has
       to  be explicitly enabled in the config file by adding the following line at the beginning
       of the file:
       #! lircrcd

       -h --help
              display this message

       -v --version
              display version

       -p --permission=mode
              file permissions for socket

       -o --output=socket
              output socket filename

OPTIONS

       -p, --premission=mode
              The --permission option gives the file permission of the Unix domain socket lircrcd
              creates  on  startup  in octal representation. Read the documentation for chmod for
              further details. If no --permission option is given when the socket is created  the
              default  is  to give only the user owning the file read and write permissions (0600
              in octal representation).

       -o, --output=socket
              With the --output option you can select the Unix domain socket, which lircrcd  will
              create. The default is to append a "d" character to the config filename given.
