Usage: ir-keytable [OPTION...]
Lists Remote Controller devices, loads rc keymaps, tests events, and adjusts
other Remote Controller options. Rather than loading a rc keymap, it is also
possible to set protocol decoders and set rc scancode to keycode mappings
directly.
You need to have read permissions on /dev/input for the program to work
On the options below, the arguments are:
SYSDEV - the rc device as found at /sys/class/rc
KEYMAP - a keymap file with protocols and scancode to keycode mappings
SCANKEY - a set of scancode1=keycode1,scancode2=keycode2.. value pairs
PROTOCOL - protocol name (nec, rc-5, rc-6, jvc, sony, sanyo, rc-5-sz, lirc,
sharp, mce_kbd, xmp, imon, rc-mm, other, all) to be enabled,
or a bpf protocol name or file
DELAY - Delay before repeating a keystroke
PERIOD - Period to repeat a keystroke
PARAMETER - a set of name1=number1[,name2=number2]... for the BPF prototcol
CFGFILE - configuration file that associates a driver/table name with
a keymap file
Options can be combined together.
-a, --auto-load=CFGFILE Auto-load keymaps, based on a configuration file.
Only works with --sysdev.
-c, --clear Clears the scancode to keycode mappings
-D, --delay=DELAY Sets the delay before repeating a keystroke
-e, --parameter=PARAMETER Set a parameter for the protocol decoder
-k, --set-key=SCANKEY Change scan/key pairs
-p, --protocol=PROTOCOL Protocol to enable (the other ones will be
disabled). To enable more than one, use the option
more than one time
-P, --period=PERIOD Sets the period to repeat a keystroke
-r, --read reads the current scancode/keycode mapping
-s, --sysdev=SYSDEV rc device to control, defaults to rc0 if not
specified
-t, --test test if IR is generating events
-v, --verbose enables debug messages
-w, --write=KEYMAP write (adds) the keymap from the specified file
-?, --help Give this help list
--usage Give a short usage message
-V, --version Print program version
Mandatory or optional arguments to long options are also mandatory or optional
for any corresponding short options.
