NAME
     xbrlapi - X11 BrlAPI helper for Linux/Unix

SYNOPSIS
     xbrlapi [option ...]

DESCRIPTION
     xbrlapi connects to a BrlAPI server in order to  provide  it
     with the ID of the X11 window which currently has focus.  It
     also simulates X keysyms  from  braille  key  presses  (else
     brltty would simulate them using a qwerty keyboard).

OPTIONS
     Options are processed sequentially from left to  right.   If
     an  option is specified more than once, or in case of a con-
     flict, the rightmost specification takes precedence.

     The following options are supported:

     -b [host][:port] (--brlapi=)
          The BrlAPI server to connect to.

     -a string (--auth=)
          The BrlAPI authorization/authentication string.

     -d display (--display=)
          The X display to connect to.   If  not  specified,  the
          content of the DISPLAY environment variable is used.

     -h (--help)
          Print a command line usage summary and then exit.

     -H (--full-help)
          Print a thorough command line usage  summary  and  then
          exit.
