1 # This plugin provides a wrapper around the "wakeonlan" tool available from most
2 # distributions' package repositories, or from the following website:
4 # http://gsd.di.uminho.pt/jpo/software/wakeonlan/
6 # In order to use this wrapper, create the ~/.wakeonlan directory, and place in
7 # that directory one file for each device you would like to be able to wake. Give
8 # the file a name that describes the device, such as its hostname. Each file
9 # should contain a line with the mac address of the target device and the network
12 # For instance, there might be a file ~/.wakeonlan/leto with the following
15 # 00:11:22:33:44:55:66 192.168.0.255
17 # To wake that device, use the following command:
21 # The available device names will be autocompleted, so:
25 # ...will suggest "leto", along with any other configuration files that were
26 # placed in the ~/.wakeonlan directory.
28 # For more information regarding the configuration file format, check the
32 local config_file="$HOME/.wakeonlan/$1"
