NAME
       irpty - pseudo tty driver

SYNOPSIS
       irpty [options] config_file -- program [args ...]

DESCRIPTION
       irpty  connects	to  lircd to receive infrared codes and converts them to key strokes. E.g. type irpty ~/.lircrc -- workbone to control the
       CD-player program workbone. Of course you will have to create an appropriate config file for this purpose first. The config string will	be
       passed  to  the desired application. Note that you can use escape sequences to specify non printable characters. Have a look at the .lircrc
       file format description for details.
