NAME
owl - tty based zephyr client
SYNOPSIS
owl [ -n ] [ -d ] [ -D ] [ -v ] [ -h ] [ -c configfile ] [ -t tty ]
DESCRIPTION
Owl is a fully integrated tty based instant messaging client. Currently it supports AOL
Instant Messenger and MIT Zephyr. It is curses-based, allows for emacs style editing of
outgoing messages and uses a perl configuration language for setting options and
customizing message formatting. Owl will also run happily without a configuration file.
Once Owl is started, typing 'h' will display a help screen. Typing ´:´ enters command
mode, allowing the user to type an owl command line.
USE
The following command line options are avilable when running owl:
-n

default subscriptions and to anything found in ~/.zephyr.subs. When this option is
used no subscriptions are loaded.
-c configfile
Specifiy an alternate config file for Owl to use. The default configuration file
is ~/.owlconf
-t tty
Specifiy the tty name to use for the zephyr location.
-v
Print the version number of owl and exit.
-d
Enable debugging. By default debugging information is placed in /var/tmp/owldebug.
-D
Enable debugging, but first delete any existing debugging file.
-h
