NAME
       tempest_for_eliza - play songs with your computer monitor and AM radio

SYNOPSIS
       tempest_for_eliza pixelclock x 1000000 HDisplay VDisplay HTotal VTotal * radio frequency play mode amplification filename

DESCRIPTION
       This program displays patterns on a computer monitor that can produce musical tones on AM radios tuned to the proper frequency.

OPTIONS
       pixelclock x 1000000, HDisplay, VDisplay, HTotal, and VTotal all should be the same each time for your monitor.	Use the xvidtune(1) appli-
       cation to determine these values.

       As the name suggests, for the pixelclock parameter multiply the result given by xvidtune(1) by 1000000.

       A usual sensible value for radio frequency is 10000000, or 10Mhz.

USAGE
       In order to play custom music, it needs to be converted.  For this, see /usr/share/doc/tempest-for-eliza/mksong.sh.

AUTHORS

       pest_for_eliza was written by Erik Thiele.
