<p><file>esdcompat</file> is a compatiblity script that takes the
36
same arguments as the ESD sound daemon <manref name="esd"
37
section="1"/>, but uses them to start a the PulseAudio sound server with the appropriate parameters. It is
38
required to make PulseAudio a drop-in replacement for esd, i.e. it
39
can be used to make <manref name="gnome-session" section="1"/>
40
start up PulseAudio instead of esd.</p>
42
<p>It is recommended to make <file>esd</file> a symbolic link to this script.</p>
