+.SH REMOTE CONTROL
+.B pianobar
+can be controlled through a fifo. You have to create it yourself by executing
+
+ mkfifo ~/.config/pianobar/ctl
+
+Adjust the path if you set up a $XDG_CONFIG_HOME. Afterwards you can write
+commands directly into the fifo. Example (next song):
+
+ echo -n 'n' > ~/.config/pianobar/ctl
+
+.B n
+is the keybinding for "next song". If you customized your keybindings you have to use these characters to control
+.B pianobar.
+.I This behaviour may change in the future!
+
+Another example:
+
+ while true; do;
+ nc -l -p 12345 -s localhost localhost > ~/.config/pianobar/ctl;
+ sleep 1;
+ done
+
+ echo -ne 'n\\x1a' | nc -q 0 127.0.0.1 12345
+
+.SH EVENTCMD
+
+.B pianobar
+can report certain "events" to an external application (see
+.B CONFIGURATION
+). This application is started with the event name as it's first argument. More
+information (artist, title, album, stationName, error code, error description,
+song length in milliseconds, rating, album art url) is supplied through stdin.
+
+Currently supported events are: artistbookmark, songban, songbookmark,
+songexplain, songfinish, songlove, songmove, songshelf, songstart,
+stationaddmusic, stationaddshared, stationcreate, stationdelete,
+stationfetchplaylist, stationquickmixtoggle, stationrename
+
+An example script can be found in the contrib/ directory of
+.B pianobar's
+source distribution.
