DESCRIPTION

       asmixer	is  a  nice  little application for controlling the volume of various sound outputs through three slider bars. It can be swallowed
       into Afterstep's Wharf for ease of use.

       -h -help --help
	    SOS, 911, etc.

       -g [+|-]x[+|-]y
	    standard format for where you want to exile asmixer

       -d device
	    the mixer device to harass

       -1 -2 -3 control
	    this binds a slider to a specific sound device:

	    VOLUME, BASS, TREBLE, SYNTH, PCM, SPEAKER, LINE,
	    MIC, CD, IMIX, ALPTPCM, RECLEV, IGAIN, OGAIN,

DEFAULTS

       -d /dev/mixer -1 VOLUME -2 CD -3 PCM -t asmixer

INVOCATION

       asmixer can be called from one of many ways.  The most common invocation is Afterstep's .steprc:

	  *Wharf "mixer" nil Swallow "asmixer" asmixer -g -1-1 &

       This line will cause asmixer to be swallowed into Wharf, which 9 out of 10 dentists agree is cool. You will then be able to slide  to  your
       hearts content in perfect Wharf comfort!

       Another way to call asmixer is from the command line:

	    [ximenes@leo]$ asmixer -d /dev/mixer -t asmixer -v 95 &

       This will pop up a little window with asmixer helplessly imprisoned inside.  Don't worry, it likes it.

NAME

       asmix - the AfterStep volume control knob

SYNOPSIS

       asmix [-h] [-V]
	       [-iconic] [-shape] [-withdrawn]
	       [-geometry [+|-]x[+|-]y]
	       [-channel channel-id]
	       [-exe command]
	       [-device mixer-device]
	       [-name window-name]

DESCRIPTION

       The  asmix  is a X11 application that acts as a volume control knob for the /dev/mixer device.  The applet provides a distinctive AfterStep
       window manager look.

       The best thing about this applet is that you do not have to learn how to use it. If you used any volume knobs before  -	you  know  how	to
       operate	this  one.  If	you never came across such a thing then just grab the knob with the left button of your mouse and turn it into the
       position you like.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

       -h
	      Prints a short description and usage message.

       -V
	      Version control. Prints the version of the applet.

       -geometry [+|-]x[+|-]y
	      Displays the window at the specified location on the screen. This works as standard X Windows geometry option.

       -iconic
	      Starts the asmix application in the iconized mode.  The icon has the same appearance with the main window.

       -shape
	      Starts the asmix application without groundplate.

       -withdrawn
	      Starts the asmix applet in the "withdrawn" mode.	Necessary to be able to dock it to the Window Maker's dock.

       -channel <channel-id>
	      Specifies the channel to control (default: volume).  The possible channels include: volume, pcm, bass, treble, synth, speaker, line,
	      mic,  cd,  imix,	pcm2,  record, igain, ogain, line1, line2, line3, digital1, digital2, digital3, phone-in, phone-out, video, radio,
	      monitor.	Note that not all systems support all channels.

       -exe <command>
	      The applet will execute the specified command on a mouseclick with the middle mouse button in the window.

       -device <mixer-device>
	      The applet will attempt to opern the specified mixer device instead of the standard /dev/mixer.

       -name <window-name>
	      The applet will set the name of the window to the specified window-name instead of the standard "asmix". This is useful  when  swal-
	      lowing multiple instances of asmix into the AfterStep Wharf.

INVOCATION

       asmix  was  written to be swallowed by the AfterStep wharf module, but it can be used with everything else too.	A common invocation is the
       command line:

	    user@host[1]% asmix &

       Another way to call asmix is from the AfterStep Wharf:

	    *Wharf asmix nil Swallow "asmix" asmix -shape &

       This line, when placed in the wharf file in the users Afterstep configuration directory will cause asmix to be a button on  the	Wharf  (1)
       button bar under the afterstep (1) window manager.

BUGS

       None that I am aware of.
