lightbulb(1)                                             lightbulb(1)

NAME
      lightbulb - Convert electrons to photons

SYNOPSIS
      lightbulb [-wattage number]

DESCRIPTION
      lightbulb reads a stream of electrons from standard input and
      produces photons on standard output.
      Thus

          lightbulb <110_volts_ac >light

      The following options apply to lightbulb:

      -wattage  Sets the rate at which electrons are converted
                to photons.

FILES
      None

SEE ALSO
      xmas_tree_lights(1), streetlamp(1), led(2)

KNOWN BUGS
      lightbulb is known to fail unexpectedly after some unknown
      number of applications. Repeated complaints to the authors
      of lightbulb have failed to come up with a fix for this
      bug. The only known workaround for a crashed lightbulb is
      re-installation from a fresh copy of the source media.

NOTES
      I believe MS Windows is based on lighbulb because they
      share the same bug - and the same workaround.

      It is important to ensure that the input stream is correctly
      formatted or the lightbulb may crash unexpectedly and with
      undefined results.

      Do not attempt to apply lightbulb's input files to other
      UNIX tools (esp. 'finger(1)'), however, lightbulb's output
      stream is fairly compatible with most other devices.

INSTALLATION
      Consult a hardware engineer.

PREREQUISITES
      Your operating system must support sockets and switches.
