pps-tools - LinuxPPS support tools and headers

The pps-tools package includes the necessary headers for using LinuxPPS PPSAPI kernel interface in user-space applications and several support tools.

ppstest: PPSAPI interface tester
ppswatch: continuously print PPS timestamps
ppsctl: PPS device manager
ppsfind: find pps device by name

Most tools display a short help message if you run them with --help as option. Unfortunately they do not come with any further documentation.

The Wiki on http://linuxpps.org provides some documentation of the LinuxPPS PPSAPI interface.

This manual page was written by Bernd Zeimetz <bzed@debian.org>, for the Debian project (and may be used by others).
