irsimsend - Send simulated IR data.
Contents
Description
irsimsend is a simple test tool which given a lircd configuration file will send all keys defined in that
file, the keys listed in another file or a symbol defined on the command line.
The program uses the file driver to log all sent data (pulses/spaces durations) into a file
'simsend.out'. The symbols sent are printed on stdout.
Files
~/.cache/irsimsend.log
Debug log. Setting the XDG_CACHE_HOME environment variable relocates this file to
$XDG_CACHE_HOME/irsimsend.log. The amount of logging respects the LIRC_LOGLEVEL environment variable,
defaulting to the debug value in the[lircd] section of lirc_options.conf.
