18 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
---|
19 | .B Owl |
---|
20 | is a fully integrated tty based zephyr client for sending and |
---|
21 | receiving zephyrs. It is curses-based, allows for emacs style editing |
---|
22 | of outgoing messages and uses a perl configuration language for |
---|
23 | setting options and customizing message formatting. Owl will also run |
---|
24 | happily without a configuration file. |
---|
25 | |
---|
26 | Once owl is started typing 'h' will display a help screen. Typing ':' |
---|
27 | enters command mode, allowing the user to type an owl command line. |
