This is what I use in my blackbox menu:
[submenu] (Volume Settings)
[exec] (Very Loud) {mixerctl -w outputs.master=248.248}
[exec] (Loud) {mixerctl -w outputs.master=160,160}
[exec] (Normal) {mixerctl -w outputs.master=120,120}
[exec] (Quiet) {mixerctl -w outputs.master=72,72}
[end]
[submenu] (Mouse Settings)
[exec] (Very Fast) {xset m 7 10}
[exec] (Normal \(Fast\)) {xset m 3 10}
[exec] (System Default) {xset m default}
[exec] (Glacial) {xset m 0 10}
[end]
I do not need to see what the current settings are. I do not need to waste
display space to know what the current settings are.
Note that mixerctl comes with NetBSD. I am assuming that a similar
command-line mixer interface is available for other operating systems.
