xbrlapi(1) - Linux man page

Name

xbrlapi - X11 BrlAPI helper for Linux/Unix

Synopsis

xbrlapi [option ...]

Description

xbrlapi connects to a BrlAPI server in order to provide it with the ID of the X11 window which currently has focus. It also simulates X keysyms from braille key presses (else brltty would simulate them using a qwerty keyboard).

Options

Options are processed sequentially from left to right. If an option is specified more than once, or in case of a conflict, the rightmost specification takes precedence.

The following options are supported:

-b [host][:port] (--brlapi=)
The BrlAPI server to connect to.
-a string (--auth=)
The BrlAPI authorization/authentication string.
-d display (--display=)
The X display to connect to. If not specified, the content of the DISPLAY environment variable is used.
-h (--help)
Print a command line usage summary and then exit.
-H (--full-help)
Print a thorough command line usage summary and then exit.
