mtxorbd(1)		    Matrix Orbital LCD Daemon		      mtxorbd(1)

NAME
     mtxorbd - Control a matrix orbital lcd screen

SYNOPSIS
     mtxorbd

DESCRIPTION
     mtxorbd listens on /tmp/lcd and relays commands to the lcd screen.  This is
     a	very  thin  wrapper  around the actual LCD commands, and just provides a
     user friendly view of the commands (in other words, text based).

     The daemon runs on a very simple protocol, which is described  below.   All
     lines  must  end with a new line, but not a carriage return (unix line end-
     ing).  All parse errors are currently ignored (you will not know  if  some-
     thing didn't go through except that the screen didn't update).
