Wake-on-LAN
===========
This module provides a wrapper around the [wakeonlan][1] tool.
Usage
-----
To use this wrapper, create the *~/.wakeonlan* directory, and place in it one
file for each device you would like to be able to wake. Give the file a name
that describes the device, such as its hostname.
Each file should contain a line with the MAC address of the target device and
the network broadcast address. For instance, there might be a file
*~/.wakeonlan/leto* with the following contents:
```conf
00:11:22:33:44:55:66 192.168.0.255
```
To wake that device, use the following command:
```sh
$ wake leto
```
For more information on the configuration file format, read the
[wakeonlan man page][2].
