NAME

       rplaydsp - intercept data bound for /dev/dsp and route it to rplayd

SYNOPSIS

       rplaydsp command [command arguments]

DESCRIPTION

       rplaydsp allows sound tools to interact with rplayd without having been coded to do so.  Any program that
       writes data to /dev/dsp should work with rplaydsp.

       The following environment variables can be used to modify the default behavior of rplaydsp.

       RPLAY_HOST: By default, rplaydsp talks to the local rplayd.  If you need the output to go somewhere else,
       then set RPLAY_HOST to the remote hostname or ip address.

       DEVRPLAY_SOUND:  Sounds  can be named under rplayd, the default name used by rplaydsp is 'devrplay'.  Use
       this variable to control the name of the sound.

       DEVRPLAY_INFO: If your sound isn't the "standard" wav format and speed, you can set this variable so that
       rplayd grok the sound.  An example value for a .au file is:
         input-info=ulinear8,8000,1,1,little-endian

       DEVRPLAY_OPTS: Set this variable to pass a generic set of RPTP options to rplayd.
