NAME

xfsound - xfce Sound

SYNOPSYS

xfsound [--display]

--display host:dpy

specifies the server to connect to.

DESCRIPTION

xfsound is both a user interface and a module that actually plays sound defined through the GUI. If xfsound is started from the command prompt, a window will come out and display a user interface, defining a way to play a sound whenever an event from xfwm is detected.

If xfsound is started from xfwm's config or from xfce using the keyword "Module" then xfsound will be started as a background module that keeps on listenning to xfwm events and play a sound accordingly.

xfsound can play sounds internally, or use a user defined command that is supposed to play the sound. xfce provides the shell script xfplay to do that.

xfplay is a script that reads a .wav file and send it to /dev/dsp using sox

If you use xfce through a local network, you'd rather use rplay to play sound across the network.

FILES

~/.xfsoundrc contains the user preferences for sound settings.
