aconnectgui

ACONNECTGUI(1)						      General Commands Manual						    ACONNECTGUI(1)

NAME

       aconnectgui -- FLTK based frontend for aconnect

SYNOPSIS

       aconnectgui

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents briefly the aconnectgui	 commands. It was written for the Debian distribution because the original program
       does not have a manual page.

       aconnectgui is a FLTK based frontend for aconnect.  It is written directly on top of the alsamixer  source,  leaving  the  original  source
       intact, only adding a couple of ifdefs, and some calls to the gui part, so it provides exactly the same functionality, but with a graphical
       user interface.

OPTIONS

       Options given are ignored. Everything that aconnect has options for is done via the GUI.

SEE ALSO

       aconnect(1), aseqnet(1), aseqview(1).
