  48 <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
  49
  50 This program will record the signals from your remote control and create
  51 a config file for lircd. A proper config file for lircd is maybe the
  52 most vital part of this package, so you should invest some time to
  53 create a working config file. Although I put a good deal of effort in
  54 this program it is often not possible to automatically recognize all
  55 features of a remote control.
  56 <P>
  57 If the program fails to recognize the protocol of the remote control you
  58 should use the --force option to at least create a config file in raw mode.
  59 <P>
  60 If <I>file</I> already exists and contains a valid config irrecord will use the
  61 protocol description found there and will only try to record the
  62 buttons. This is very useful if you want to learn a remote where config
  63 files of the same brand are already available. Of course this will only
  64 work if the remotes use the same protocol but it's worth a try. You will
  65 find template files for the most common protocols in the
  66 remotes/generic/ directory of this package. The name of the new file is
  67 created by appending .conf to the given filename in this case.
