.SH NAME
\fBasmix\fP \- the AfterStep volume control knob
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B asmix
[-h] [-V]
        [-iconic] [-shape] [-withdrawn]
        [-geometry \fI[+|-]x[+|-]y\fP]
        [-exe \fIcommand\fP]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fBasmix\fP is a X11 application that acts as
a volume control knob for the /dev/mixer device.
The applet provides a distinctive AfterStep window
manager look.
.PP
The best thing about this applet is that you do not
have to learn how to use it. If you used any volume
knobs before - you know how to operate this one. If
you never came across such a thing then just grab
the knob with the left button of your mouse and turn
it into the position you like.

.SH INVOCATION
\fBasmix\fP was written to be swallowed by the AfterStep wharf
module, but it can be used with everything else too.
A common invocation is the command line:
.nf

	user@host[1]% asmix &

.fi
Another way to call \fBasmix\fP is from the AfterStep Wharf:
.nf

	*Wharf asmix nil Swallow "asmix" asmix -shape &

.fi
This line, when placed in the \fIwharf\fP file in the users Afterstep
configuration directory will cause \fBasmix\fP to be a
button on the \fBWharf (1)\fP button bar under the \fBafterstep (1)\fP
window manager.
.SH BUGS
None that I am aware of.
