<tt>PULSE_SERVER</tt>, <tt>POYLP_SINK</tt>, <tt>PULSE_SOURCE</tt>,
<tt>PULSE_COOKIE</tt>. This is very useful when using SSH or any other
remote login tool for logging into other machines and getting audio
-playback to your local speakers. The Polypaudio client libraries make
+playback to your local speakers. The PulseAudio client libraries make
use of this data automatically. Instead of using this module you may
use the tool <tt>pax11publish</tt> which may be used to access, modify
and import credential data from/to the X11 display.</p>
