irsimreceive(1)

💖 irsimreceive(1) — like, the user-commands girlies know 💖

okay bestie, welcome to irsimreceive, a lil tool from the irsimreceive family of manual pages, section 1, user commands, the whole vibe 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

irsimreceive — decode IR durations data, no cap 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

irsimreceive [options]  <configfile>  <datafile>

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so listen. this is a simple test tool — like, it's not trying to be the main character, it's just here to do one job and do it well 🫶

what it does: it decodes duration data in datafile, using a lircd.conf-type configfile. that's it. that's the whole thing.

and the output? the data it spits out is in the same format as on the lircd output socket. so if you already know what that looks like, you already know what you're getting. slay ✨

---

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -U, --plugindir <dir> — load drivers from <dir>. point it at wherever your drivers live, bestie 📁
• -v, --version — print version and exit. quick lil peek, then she's gone 💨
• -h, --help — print help message. when you're lost and need a friend 🥺

---

🎀 FILES 🎀

• ~/.cache/irsimreceive.log — the debug log, aka the receipts 📝

setting the XDG_CACHE_HOME environment variable relocates this file to $XDG_CACHE_HOME/irsimreceive.log. so if you want your log somewhere else, that's your move ✨

and how much logging happens? that respects the LIRC_LOGLEVEL environment variable 💜 and if you don't set that, it defaults to the debug value in the [lircd] section of lirc_options.conf. iykyk 🔥

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the documentation for lirc is maintained as html pages 📄 they're located under html/ in the documentation directory. go read, bestie, it's giving educational 👑
