.TH COLRCONV 1
.SH NAME
colrconv \- hamradio convers client with sound and ncurses color support
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B colrconv
.I "[options]"
.I "<host>"
.I "[<service>]"
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.BR colrconv
commands.
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
.PP
.B Colrconv
is a modified version of VA3DP's ttylink client. In addition to the
basic split screen session it gives you color and sound support
plus some line editing capabilities, a scroll buffer and a status line.
Also the default service is changed to 3600 (convers).
A new color is assigned to each user the first time he sends text
and this color is used when displaying any subsequent text from this
user. Available colors are green, yellow, cyan, magenta, blue and red.
These are used twice, the second time with BOLD attribute on. After
the colors run out they are used again.
Bold red is reserved for special messages (starting with ***) and
for private messages (eg. <*oh2bns*>: Hello!).
.B Colrconv
plays certain sound files when it receives text from the convers bridge.
The files are: callsign.au (eg. oh2bns.au), unknown.au, signedon.au
says.au and pingpong.au. This feature is still a bit experimental
and only works with older convers servers. Also you have to make
your own .au file. The rsynth package is good at this. See the readme
for details. Sound files should go into /usr/lib/colrconv.

sending commands like /notify, /who, etc.
