SYNOPSISesdcompat [options]
esdcompat--help
esdcompat--version
DESCRIPTIONesdcompat is a compatibility script that takes the same arguments as
the ESD sound daemon esd(1), but uses them to start a the PulseAudio
sound server with the appropriate parameters. It is required to make
PulseAudio a drop-in replacement for esd, i.e. it can be used to make
gnome-session(1) start up PulseAudio instead of esd.
It is recommended to make esd a symbolic link to this script.
