.SH NAME
rigctl \- control radio transceivers and receivers
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B rigctl
[\fIOPTION\fR]... [\fICOMMAND\fR]...
.SH DESCRIPTION
Control radio transceivers and receivers.
\fBrigctl\fP accepts \fBcommands\fP from command line as well as in
interactive mode if none provided in command line.
.PP
.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics, 
.\" respectively.
Keep in mind that \fBHamlib\fP is still ALPHA level software. 
A lof of stuff hasn't been tested thoroughly, and the API may change
without publicised notice. Please report bugs and feedback at
the e-mail address given in the REPORTING BUGS section.
.SH OPTIONS
This program follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
options starting with two dashes (`-').
A summary of options is included below.
.TP
.B \-m, \-\-model=id
Select radio model number. See model list.
.TP
.B \-r, --rig-file=device
Use \fBdevice\fP as the file name of the radio to operate on.
.TP
.B \-p, --ptt-file=device
Use \fBdevice\fP as the file name of the Push-To-Talk device to operate on.
.TP
.B \-d, --dcd-file=device
Use \fBdevice\fP as the file name of the Data Carrier Detect device 
to operate on.
.TP
.B \-p, --ptt-type=type
Use \fBtype\fP device as the kind of the Push-To-Talk device to operate on.
Supported types are RIG, DTR, RTS, PARALLEL, NONE.
.TP
.B \-d, --dcd-type=type
Use \fBtype\fP device as the kind of the Data Carrier Detect device 
to operate on.
Supported types are RIG, DSR, CTS, CD, PARALLEL, NONE.
.TP
.B \-s, --serial-speed=baud
Set serial speed to \fBbaud\fP rate. Uses maximal rig speed as default.
.TP
.B \-c, --civaddr=id
Use \fBid\fP as the CI-V address to communicate with the rig. 
Only for Icom rigs. NB: the \fBid\fP is in decimal notation, unless prefixed by \fB0x\fP,
in which case it is hexadecimal.
.TP
.B \-L, \-\-show-conf
List all config parameters.
.TP
.B \-C, \-\-set\-conf=parm=val[,parm=val]*
Set config parameter.
.TP
.B \-l, \-\-list
List all model numbers and exit.
.TP
.B \-u, \-\-dump\-caps
Dump capabilities and exit.
.TP
.B \-o, \-\-vfo
Set vfo mode, requiring an extra VFO argument in front of each appropriate command.
Otherwise, VFO_CURR is assumed when this option is not set.
.TP
.B \-v, \-\-verbose
Set verbose mode, cumulative (BUG, ERR, WARN, VERBOSE, TRACE).
.TP
.B \-h, \-\-help
Show summary of options and exit.
.TP
.B \-V, \-\-version
Show version of program and exit.

.SH COMMANDS
Commands can be entered either as a single char, or as a long command name.
Basically, the commands do not take a dash in front of them on the command
line, as the options usually do. They may be typed in when in interactive mode
or provided as argument in command line interface mode.
.PP
Since most of the Hamlib operations have a \fIset\fP and a \fIget\fP method,
upper case letter will be used for \fIset\fP method whereas the corresponding
lower case letter refers to the \fIget\fP method.
In interactive, prepend a backslash to enter a long command name.
Example: "\\dump_caps" to see what this model can do.

.PP
Please note that the backend for the radio to be controlled, 
or the radio itself may not support some commands. In that case, 
the operation will fail with a standard error message.
