owl - tty based zephyr clientSYNOPSIS
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.
