NAME

       kildclient - A powerful MUD client with a built-in Perl interpreter

SYNOPSIS

       kildclient [options]... [World]...

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the KildClient program.

       KildClient  is  a  MUD Client written with the GTK+ windowing toolkit. It supports many common features of other clients, such as triggers,
       gags, aliases, macros, timers, and much more. But its main feature is the built-in Perl interpreter. You can at	any  moment  execute  Perl
       statements  and	functions to do things much more powerful than simply sending text the the mud. Perl statements can also be run, for exam-
       ple, as the action of a trigger, allowing you to do complex things. Some built-in functions of KildClient allow interaction with the world,
       such as sending commands to it.

       You  can  specify  the name of one or more saved Worlds in the command line, this/these World(s) will be automatically opened. You can also
       specify a host name to connect to in the command line. By default, connection in made to port 4000. You can specify  a  different  port	by
       using hostname:port. While not recommended, you can also specify a username and password with the following syntax: username:password@host-
       name:port. This host specification syntax can be prefixed with telnet:// and end with /, for example telnet://some.mud.com:4444/.

       If you do not specify any World, you are prompted for the MUD to connect to. You can enter the host and port directly, or  you  can  select
       from  a	list  of saved MUDs. Once connected, type commands in the separate entry box and press ENTER to send them to the MUD. You can edit
       the commands before sending, since they only get sent when ENTER is pressed. You can recall previous commands with the arrow  keys,  or	by
       pressing the button to the right of the command entry box.

       There  are  many more features, many options for configuring the program's behaviour. For more details, see the KildClient manual, which is
       usually installed in the /usr/share/doc/kildclient directory.

NAME

       gftp - a graphical ftp client

SYNOPSIS

       gftp [options] [[proto://][ user : [pass] @] site [: port ][/ directory ]]

DESCRIPTION

       gFTP  is  a  multiprotocol  file transfer program for X Windows and the console. It features support for the FTP, SSH, HTTP, and local file
       system protocols, simultaneous downloads, resuming of interrupted file transfers, file transfer queues, downloading of  entire  directores,
       ftp and http proxy support, remote directory caching, bookmarks menu, stop button and many more features

OPTIONS

       You may enter a url on the command line that gFTP will automatically connect to when it starts up.

       --help, -h
	      Display program usage, and quit

       --version, -v
	      This will display the current version of gFTP, and exit

       --download, -d
	      This tells gFTP to download the files and directories specified in the url passed on the command line.

       user   This is the username that you will login as to the remote site. If no username is supplied, the default is to login as anonymous.

       pass   This is the password you will use to login to the remotesite. If you do not enter a password, then gFTP will ask you for one when it
	      starts up. I do not recommend entering your password on the command prompt. Anyone that has access to your machine will be  able	to
	      see  your username and password with the ps(1) command. If you are logging in as anonymous, you do not need to pass a password since
	      gFTP will automatically send your email address as your password.

       site   This is the remote site you want to connect to

       port   This is the port that the remote server is listening on. If you do not enter a port, it will default to using the ftp port listed in
	      the services(5) file. If the entry doesn't exist there, it will default to port 21.

       directory
	      This is the default directory to change to once you are connected to the remote server.

FILES

       ~/.gftp/gftprc
	      Per  user  configuration file. This file is commented very well, so that is why there isn't a manpage for it. Most of the options in
	      here can be set inside gFTP itself.

BUGS

       If you find any bugs in gFTP, please report them directly to the author.
