NAME

       fone - control ISDN telephone

SYNOPSIS

       fone [options...]

DESCRIPTION

       Fone  manages an AT&T 7506 ISDN telephone set.  Program control is supplementary: normal functioning of the phone is not affected.  The set
       must be equipped with the ProPhone1.5 ROM or equivalent.  To initialize after the ROM is first installed, push the then the button, and set
       parameters as follows:

		DATA MODE: B2
		DATA RATE: 19200
		PARITY: SPACE
		LOCAL MODE: AT

       Fone should be run once per terminal session; it accepts commands typed in its window.  If the file exists and is writable, it will contain
       a log of calls.	A permanent log file may be initialized with:

		chmod +a call.log >call.log

       Options for fone are:

       -f file	The telephone is controlled through file instead of /dev/eia0.

       -l file	Calls are logged in file instead of call.log.

       -m	The mike is not muted when a call is dialed with the handset down (see below).

       -t cmd	The t command (see below) runs cmd instead of /bin/tel.

       Commands to fone are read, one per line, from the standard input.

       c string
	      Call telephone number string.  Non-alphanumeric characters are discarded, and the appropriate prefix (9, 91,  or	none)  is  guessed
	      from the length of the result.  (If there is no active call, and string begins with a digit, the initial c may be omitted.)

       C string
	      The alphanumeric characters in string are dialed exactly as given.

       d      Drop the active call, or the last party added to a conference call.

       h      Put the active call on hold.

       k string
	      Add  a  party  to  a conference call.  The active call is placed on  hold, and string is parsed and dialed.  Once the second call is
	      connected, the command with no argument adds the new call to the previously active call appearance.  If the called party	is  indis-
	      posed, the commands and will drop the second call and reconnect the first.

       q string
	      Query the local switch for directory entries matching string (a surname preceded by up to two initials, like or

       r id   Reconnect  a  call on hold and make it the active call.  If the appearance id is omitted, it defaults to that of the lowest numbered
	      call on hold.

       s      Show the id, state, and calling information for each call.

       t string
	      Run the tel(1) command on string.

       x string
	      Transfer the active call.  The active call is placed in limbo (similar to hold), and string is parsed and dialed.  Once  the  second
	      call  is	connected,  the  command  with no argument bridges the two calls together and drops the intermediary (you).  If the called
	      party is indisposed, the commands and will drop the second call and reconnect the first.

       . string
	      Transmits the converted Touch-Tone string to the called party; a string that begins with a or a digit  doesn't  need  the  preceding
	      (See command c above if no call is active.)

       ?      Print a summary of commands.

       The  command  may  be  given before or after lifting the handset; if the handset is down, the call is placed with the speaker on so you can
       hear what's happening.  The mike is normally muted, but the -m flag (see above) overrides this.
