PROGRAM:

NAME


bnchat - Battle.net text-based chat client

SYNOPSIS


bnchat [options] [servername [serverport]]

DESCRIPTION


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

If no servername is specified, localhost is assumed. If no serverport is specified, 6112
is assumed.

OPTIONS


-a --ansi-color
Allows bnchat to use ANSI terminal color escapes to make things more readable. You
must be using a terminal compatible with VT100 positioning and ANSI color codes.
The program will not attempt to determine your terminal type.

-b Causes bnchat to emulate a Brood Wars client.

-c --change-password
Causes bnchat to prompt for a new login password on the bnetd(1) server.

--client
Causes bnchat to emulate a specific client. The following client tags are
recognized: DRTL DSHR STAR SSHR SEXP W2BN. There are short options which may be
used instead for the common clients.

-d Causes bnchat to emulate a Diablo client.

-h --help --usage
Print usage information and exit.

-k --cdkey
Causes bnchat to report an alternate key to the bnetd(1) server.

-o --owner
Causes bnchat to report an alternate owner to the bnetd(1) server.

-n --new-account
Causes bnchat to prompt to create a new player account on the bnetd(1) server.

-s Causes bnchat to emulate a Starcraft client.

-v --version
Print its version number and exit.

-w Causes bnchat to emulate a Warcraft II BNE client.

NOTES


The terminal width is attempted to be determined at runtime but if it does not work you
may need to try running resize(1). As a final act of desperation you can try setting the
COLUMNS environmental variable.

If SIGWINCH and its associated ioctl(2) are supported on your system, resizing the window
while the program is running should immediately update width of the entry line.

The current version is available with the bnetd distribution at:
