NAME
     flarq - ARQ data transfer utility for fldigi

SYNOPSIS
     flarq [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
     Flarq  (fast light automatic repeat request) is a file transfer application
     that is based on the ARQ specification developed by Paul Schmidt, K9PS.  It
     is  capable of transmitting and receiving frames of ARQ data via fldigi, as
     well as MultiPSK on Windows.

OPTIONS
     Long options begin with two hyphens and are handled by  flarq.  The  option
     names may be abbreviated to any unambiguous substring, and the option argu-
     ment  may	be  separated  from  the  name by a space or equals sign, as per
     getopt(3).

     Short options begin with a single hyphen and are passed directly  to  FLTK.
     They may be abbreviated only as indicated.
