gm_ctl_client1

Gnumed xml-rpc connector for legacy applications

Usage

gm_ctl_client [--log-file=FILE] [--conf-file=FILE] [--text-domain=TEXTDOMAIN] [--lang-gettext=LANGUAGE]

Overview

gm_ctl_client is a small helper program acting as a client for the XML-RPC API of the GNUmed client.

This API can be used by 3rd-Party software to remote control a GNUmed client.

Options

--text-domain=TEXTDOMAIN

Set this to change the name of the language file to be loaded. Note, this does not change the directory the file is searched in, only the name of the file where messages are loaded from. The standard textdomain is, of course, "gnumed.mo". You need only specify the base name of the file without the .mo extension.

--log-file=FILE

Use this to change the name of the log file. The default log file would be <~/.gnumed/gnumed.log>.

--conf-file=FILE

Use configuration file FILE instead of searching for it in standard locations.

--lang-gettext=LANGUAGE

Explicitly set the language to use in gettext translation. The very same effect can be achieved by setting the environment variable $LANG from a launcher script.

Environment

LANG, LC_MESSAGES, etc.

See gettext(1) for how the various locale related environment variables work.

Files

~/.gm_ctl_client/gm_ctl_client.log

The default log file.

~/.gm_ctl_client/gm_ctl_client.conf

The default configuration file.
