NAME

       Version - daemon for ''lcd'' display devices

SYNOPSIS

       lcd4linux [OPTIONS...]

DESCRIPTION

       LCD4Linux  is a small program that grabs information from the kernel and some subsystems and displays it on an external liquid crystal dis-
       play.

       If started without any options, it will try to read its configuration from /etc/lcd4linux.conf and daemonize. Please make sure your config-
       uration file is owned by the user you run lcd4linux (typically root) and has permissions 600.

       -f     Alternate configuration file to read. Use this switch to make lcd4linux read another file than /etc/lcd4linux.conf.

       -F     Run in forground and don't daemonize. Useful for debugging.

       -c arg allows one to overwrite entries in the config-file from the command line. arg is 'key=value'

       -h     shows a really short usage of lcd4linux

       -i     starts lcd4linux in interactive mode. Can be used multiple times

       -l     Prints a list of supported displays

       -o     Specifies an output file (see http://ssl.bulix.org/projects/lcd4linux/ for details)

       -q     makes lcd4linux more quiet. Can be used multiple times

       -v     increases verbose level. Can be used multiple times

FILES

       /etc/lcd4linux.conf
	      Contains the configuration of lcd4linux. Please note that distributions generally don't install this file, please create it yourself
	      using the sample configuration as template.

       /usr/share/doc/lcd4linux/lcd4linux.conf.gz
	      Contains a detailed and extensive example configuration file
