ev_bell, starts programs upon sound events from /dev/input/event0.
Autor: Christian Reitwiessner <christian@reitwiessner.de>
Usage: ev_bell <device> <program to execute>
Listens on <device> (usually /dev/input/event0) for sound events and executes the specified program, passing all remaining parameters. If present, a "%1" is substituted by the timestamp of the event, two long integers in decimal representation separated by a ".", the first representing the tv_sec and the second the tv_usec field of a struct timeval (seconds and microseconds since the unix epoch). "%2" is substituted by the event code or sound types (defined in linux/input.h, currently only SND_CLICK (0) and SND_BEEP (1) are specified). "%3" is substituted by the event value.
- Example
- ev_bell /dev/input/event0 esdplay beep.wav
