radio - console radio application


SYNOPSIS

       radio [ frequency ]


DESCRIPTION

       radio is a interactice, ncurses-bases console radio appli­
       cation.  If a command  line  argument  is  present,  radio
       tries to interpret this as frequency (in MHz).

       If  you  want to use radio non-interactive to set the fre­
       quency, redirect both stdin and out to /dev/null.


CONFIGURATION

       radio picks up station names and present stations  from  a
       config  file.   It can parse kradio (KDE radio app) config
       files, therefore it first tries the usual KDE config  file
       location:   ~/.kde/share/config/kradiorc.   Failing  that,
       radio tries ~/.radio (which makes things a bit easier  for
       people who don't use kradio).

       The format looks like this:

       # KDE Config File
       [Buttons]
       1=95800000
       2=91400000
       [Stations]
       100600000=Hundert,6
       95800000=Radio eins
       102600000=Fritz
       94300000=r.s.2
       91400000=Berliner Rundfunk

       The  [Buttons] section can have up to eight entries.  That
       are the present stations, they get mapped to  F1-F8.   The
       [Stations] section maps frequencies to station names.  The
       frequencies in both sections are specified in Hz.
