gdamcli Command Summary

Here are most of the commands:

• ls [-a] [-R] [source_id...]

  ls - list (or print) soundsources. The source_id's may be those returned by subsource creation routines, or may be determined by ls or other means.

  Options:

  -a

  show all arguments

  -R

  recurse -- print the entire tree. usually ls shows just one layer: this makes it ascend the entire tree.

• silence [mixer_id]

  silence - remove all sound sources for a device. Defaults to the mixer for the default device.

• mixer

  mixer - return the default mixer id number. This is the source id to ls and the default mix_id for add.

• device [device_id]

  device - return the default device id number.

• source {name} [GdamSourceType] [ arg_name arg_value...]

  source - create a sound source. Creates a new source named the specified variable name, and sets the specified arguments. The source is generally then set as another's child or add-ed to the mix.

• set [ [source_id | $variable_name] [ arg_name arg_value ...] ]

  set - set a source's arguments. TODO: finish writing.

• detach [id]

  detach - orphan a sound source. This causes the source id to stop feeding whatever it is feeding. It usually dies thereafter (unless it is not attached or is still otherwise accessible).

• add {source_id} [source_id]

  add - add a source to a mixer. Add the given source to the given mixer (or the default mixer if no mix is specified).

• help [topic]
