SYNOPSIS

alevtd [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

alevtd is http daemon which serves videotext pages as HTML. Tune in some station with a
utility like v4lctl or some TV application. Then start it and point your browser to
http://localhost:5654/

Pages may be requested either in HTML format (http://localhost:5654/<page>/ or
http://localhost:5654/<page>/<subpage>.html) or in ASCII text format
(http://localhost:5654/<page>/<subpage>.txt). Subpage "00" can be used for pages without
subpages.
