.SH DESCRIPTION
|
| 32 |
|
|
.B bnchat
|
| 33 |
|
|
is a simple Battle.net client emulator that can be used as a minimal chat client with
|
| 34 |
|
|
.BR bnetd (1)
|
| 35 |
|
|
in order to test certain aspects of the server configuration or to do server
|
| 36 |
|
|
administration from the Unix command line. It is also compatible with FSGS servers, but
|
| 37 |
|
|
has difficulty with real Battle.net servers.
|
| 38 |

.SH NOTES
|
| 111 |
|
|
The terminal width is attempted to be determined at runtime but if it does not work
|
| 112 |
|
|
you may need to try running
|
| 113 |
|
|
.BR resize (1) .
|
| 114 |
|
|
As a final act of desperation you can try setting the COLUMNS environmental variable.
|
| 115 |
|
|
.LP
|
| 116 |
|
|
If SIGWINCH and its associated
|
| 117 |
|
|
.BR ioctl (2)
|
| 118 |
|
|
are supported on your system, resizing the window while the program is running should
|
| 119 |
|
|
immediately update width of the entry line.

|
|
This program assumes that the terminal will move to the beginning of the current line
|
| 128 |
|
|
when the carriage return character (^M) is printed. It also assumes the backspace
|
| 129 |
|
|
character (^H) will move one column to the left that character printed after that
|
| 130 |
|
|
will replace those already on the screen.
|
| 131 |
