Package: esound-clients
Version: 0.2.35-2
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/esdrec


The man page for esdrec is not helpful to the novice user.

For one thing, it doesn't explain what the flags mean.
For another thing, it shows a redirection in from a file
when the redirection should probably outwards.
For another thing, it doesn't say what sound formats are
supported or how to select them.   Or even what the program
does, for that matter.

I assume from the name that esdrec will record from a
sound card into a file.      Perhaps not.
The man page should say.
