NAME
       irsimsend - Send simulated IR data.

SYNOPSIS
       irsimsend [-k keysym |-l listfile ] [other options] <file>

       irsimsend [-v |-h]

       irsimsend <configfile>


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.


OPTIONS
       -c, --count  <count>
           Repeat each sent signal <count> times.


       -U, --plugindir <path>
           Load drivers from path, a ':' separated search path similar to
           $PATH.


       -l,--listfile  <path>
           Send symbols listed in file instead of just the symbols in the
           config file. The file could either be listing a single key symbol
           per line, or have a complete code string like 000000000000a123 01
           KEY_POWER brand on each line.


       -k, --keysym
           Send a single key symbol defined in file.


       -s, --start-space <useconds>
           Send an initial space before sending data.



       -v , --version
           Print version and exit.


       -h , --help
           Print help message.


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.
