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.

       -q (--quiet)
	      Do not write any text to the braille device.

       -h (--help)
	      Print a command line usage summary and then exit.

       -H (--full-help)
	      Print a thorough command line usage summary and then exit.
