NAME
xfsound - xfce Sound
SYNOPSYS
xfsound [--display]
- --display host:dpy
- specifies the server to connect to.
DESCRIPTION
xfsound is both a user interface and a module that actu
ally plays sound defined through the GUI. If xfsound is
started from the command prompt, a window will come out
and display a user interface, defining a way to play a
sound whenever an event from xfwm is detected.
If xfsound is started from xfwm's config or from xfce
using the keyword "Module" then xfsound will be started as
a background module that keeps on listenning to xfwm
events and play a sound accordingly.
xfsound can play sounds internally, or use a user defined
command that is supposed to play the sound. xfce provides
the shell script xfplay to do that.
xfplay is a script that reads a .wav file and send it to
/dev/dsp using sox
If you use xfce through a local network, you'd rather use
rplay to play sound across the network.
FILES
~/.xfsoundrc contains the user preferences for sound set
tings.
