+ The standard client program is written in perl and lives in /spider/perl/client.pl.
It performs the interface function
between the cluster daemon (/spider/perl/cluster.pl) and
AX25 or Telnet connections, both incoming and outgoing.
+
+ There is a related program called /spider/perl/console.pl which,
+ as of version 1.30, is the standard sysop or full duplex telnet user

+ that has a bash or shell like command history editing facility as well
+ as a scrolling cluster window with colouration of particular lines of
+ interest (such as DX spots, Announces etc).
