6 lircrc - application-specific remotes signals configuration
7
9 lircrc is the last LIRC configuration point in the flow of events from
10 the kernel to the application. It provides a way to translate the
11 application-agnostic events which lircd makes available on
12 /var/run/lirc/lircd to application-specific strings. The translation
13 is invoked by LIRC-aware applications by using the the lirc_code2char()
14 routine in the lirc_client library.
15
16 The lircrc event mapping is not only mapping from a remote event to an
17 application string. It also supports a variety of functionality such as
18 repeat suppression, modes, long keypresses and button sequences.
19
20 The default location for lircrc is ~/.config/lircrc with a global fall‐
21 back in /etc/lirc/lircrc. Many applications which uses the lircrc
22 translations have private locations for the file.
