<description>
<p>The <file>pax11publish</file> utility can be used to dump or
manipulate the PulseAudio server credentials that can be stored as
properties on the X11 root window.</p>
<p>Please note that the loadable module
<file>module-x11-publish</file> exports the same information
directly from the PulseAudio sound server, and should in most
cases be used in preference over this tool.</p>
<p>Use the following command to dump the raw
PulseAudio-specific data that is stored in your X11 root
window:</p>
<p>xprop -root | grep ^PULSE_</p>
</description>
<options>
<option>
<p><opt>-h</opt></p>
<optdesc><p>Show help.</p></optdesc>
</option>
<option>
<p><opt>-d</opt></p>
<optdesc><p>Read the PulseAudio server credentials currently set
on the X11 root window and dump them in a human readable form. This reads the
PULSE_SERVER, PULSE_SINK, PULSE_SOURCE and PULSE_COOKIE
properties.</p></optdesc>
</option>
<option>
<p><opt>-i</opt></p>
<optdesc><p>Similar to <opt>-d</opt>, however dumps them in a
Bourne shell compatible format so they may be used together with
the <file>eval</file> shell command to set the $PULSE_SERVER,
$PULSE_SINK, $PULSE_SOURCE environment variables. Also reads the
authentication cookie from the root window and stores it in
<file>~/.pulse-cookie</file>. </p></optdesc>
</option>
<option>
<p><opt>-e</opt></p>
<optdesc><p>Export the currently locally used sound server,
sink, source configuration to the X11 root window. This takes
the data from the $PULSE_SERVER, $PULSE_SINK, $PULSE_SOURCE
environment variables and combines them with the data from
<file>~/.pulse/client.conf</file> (or
<file>@PA_DEFAULT_CONFIG_DIR@/client.conf</file> if that file does not
exist). If specific options are passed on the command line
(<opt>-S</opt>, <opt>-O</opt>, <opt>-I</opt>, <opt>-c</opt>, see
below), they take precedence. Also uploads the local
authentication cookie <file>~/.pulse-cookie</file> to the X11
server.</p></optdesc>
</option>
<option>
<p><opt>-r</opt></p>
<optdesc><p>Removes the configured PulseAudio configuration from the X11 root window.</p></optdesc>
</option>
<option>
<p><opt>-D</opt> <arg>DISPLAY</arg></p>
<optdesc><p>Connect to the specified X11 display, instead of the default one configured in $DISPLAY.</p></optdesc>
</option>
<option>
<p><opt>-S</opt> <arg>SERVER</arg></p>
<optdesc><p>Only valid for <opt>-e</opt>: export the specified

<p><opt>-O</opt> <arg>SINK</arg></p>
