### NAME

irframetty - IrDA frame over serial line driver

### SYNOPSIS

pseudo-device irframetty

### DESCRIPTION

The irframetty driver provides a tty(4) line discipline to send and receive IrDA frames over a serial line via an IrDA dongle.

```IRFRAMETTY_SET_DONGLE````(int)`
  Set the dongle type. See the include file for possible dongles.

```IRFRAMETTY_GET_DONGLE````(int)`
  Get the dongle type.

```IRFRAMETTY_GET_DEVICE````(int)`
  Get the number of the irframe(4) device that must be used to access the frames.
