NAME
     qtel - a "QT EchoLink" client

DESCRIPTION
     Qtel  stands for the "QT EchoLink" client. It is only a EchoLink client ap-
     plication.  There is no "sysop mode". If it is a link you want to run, have
     a look at the SvxLink server application. Qtel is quite a	simple	applica-
     tion,  so most things should be self explainatory. There are three windows:
     the main window, the communications dialog and the settings dialog.

     The Qtel Main Window

     The main window consists of four areas. The top-left  is  where  to  choose
     which  class  of staions to view (Conferences, Links, Repeaters and private
     Stations). All stations in a class is shown to the top-right. At  left-bot-
     tom  is  a message area that shows the messages from the EchoLink directory
     server. At right-bottom is a list of incoming connections. To accept an in-
     coming connection, highlight the station and press "Accept".

     The Qtel Communications Dialog

     The communications dialog is used to perform a Qso to  anoher  station.  To
     activate  it,  double-click  on  a station line or just press the enter key
     when the station is highlighted.  To connect to the station, press the Con-
     nect button. To transmit, press the PTT button.  To disconnect,  press  the
     "Disconnect"  button.  In	the big, white area in the middle of the window,
     info messages from the remote station are shown. Chat messages from the re-
     mote station is also shown here. In the oneline white area below, chat mes-
     sages can be typed that is sent to the remote station.

     The Qtel Settings Dialog

     The configuration dialog is brought up the first time  the  application  is
     started.	Most  fields are self explainatory. Location is the short string
     that is shown in the EchoLink directory server listing. The info message is
     the one that is sent to the remote station upon connection. In  the  Direc-
     tory Server tab are some settings for the EchoLink directory server connec-
     tion.

OPTIONS
     There are no options. Start the program within a console - qtel & - or from
     the menu.

ENVIRONMENT
     ASYNC_AUDIO_NOTRIGGER
	    Set  this environment variable to 1 if you get an error about ioctl:
	    Broken pipe during qtel startup when using OSS audio.

     ASYNC_AUDIO_ALSA_ZEROFILL
	    Set this environment variable to 1 to make the Alsa audio code write
	    zeros to the audio device when there is no audio to write available.
	    This may be needed for some audio devices that take a long	time  to
	    recover from an underflow condition.
