NAME
sorune — a Neuros database manager
SYNOPSIS
sorune [command]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the sorune tool.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has
documentation in a README file, which should be located in the
/usr/share/doc/sorune directory on Debian.
sorune is a tool to manage the database on the Neuros Audio player. It
is written entirely in Perl, which makes it highly portable. sorune
does not keep a local copy of any of the metadata about the user’s
audio library on the host machine. The Neuros database is manipulated
directly, which eliminates the need to identify each Neorus backpack
that is connected to the host machine.
