# pnmixer(1)

a mixer for the system tray

## NAME

pnmixer - a mixer for the system tray

## SYNOPSIS

**pnmixer** \[***OPTION***\]

## DESCRIPTION

**pnmixer** is a simple mixer application designed to run in your system tray. It integrates nicely into desktop environments that don't have a panel that supports applets and therefore can't run a mixer applet. In particular it's been used quite a lot with *fbpanel* and *tint2*, but should run fine in any system tray.

**pnmixer** is designed to work on systems that use *ALSA* for sound management. Any other sound driver like *OSS* or *FFADO* are currently not supported (patches welcome). **pnmixer** has been reported to work well with *PulseAudio*, but we lack feedback on this matter.

## OPTIONS

**pnmixer** follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (\`-').
