Hi all

I made a little utility that alows you to bind shortcut keys to volume up, 
volume down, volume mute, and volume unmute.

It does this by executing dcop calls to Kmix

I hope this will be of use to someone.

With kind regards

Example usage:

volume --up 
 increases volume with 10%
volume --down 20
 decreases volume with 20%
volume --volume
 prints current volume level
volume --volume 55
 sets volume level to 55%
volume --mute 
 saves volume level to temporary file and set volume to 0
volume --unmute
 loads volume level from temporary file and set volume (defaults to 55%)
