perl -d cluster.pl
It will interrupt the cluster just after the debug command has finished.
+
=== 0^DIRECTORY^List messages
=== 0^DIRECTORY ALL^List all messages
=== 0^DIRECTORY OWN^List your own messages
Reload the /spider/data/bands.pl file if you have changed it manually whilst
the cluster is running.
-=== 9^LOAD/BADDX^Reload the bad DX table
-Reload the /spider/data/baddx.pl file if you have changed it manually whilst
-the cluster is running. This table contains the DX Calls that, if spotted,
-will not be passed on. FR0G and TEST are classic examples.
-
=== 9^LOAD/BADMSG^Reload the bad msg table
Reload the /spider/msg/badmsg.pl file if you have changed it manually whilst
the cluster is running. This table contains a number of perl regular
or
pc G1TLH Try doing that properly!!!
-=== 1^PING <node>^Send a ping command to another cluster
-This command is used to estimate the quality of the link to another cluster.
-The time returned is the length of time taken for a PC51 to go to another
-cluster and be returned.
-
=== 0^KILL <msgno> [<msgno> ...]^Remove or erase a message from the system
You can get rid of any message to or originating from your callsign using
this command. You can remove more than one message at a time.
You can also use in the same way as a talk command to a connected user but
without any processing, added of "from <blah> to <blah" or whatever.
-=== 1^PING <node call>^Find out the delays an a circuit to another node
-This command will enable sysops to determine the speed of an inter-cluster
-node.
-
+=== 1^PING <node call>^Check the link quality between nodes
+This command allows you to send a frame to another cluster node on
+the network and get a return frame. The time it takes to do this
+is a good indication of the quality of the link. The actual time
+it takes is output to the console in seconds.
Any visible cluster node can be PINGed.
=== 1^RCMD <node call> <cmd>^Send a command to another DX Cluster
=== 5^SET/ARCLUSTER <call> [<call>..]^Make the callsign an AR-Cluster node
-=== 6^SET/BADNODE <call>^Stop spots from this callsign being propagated
-=== 6^UNSET/BADNODE <call>^Allow spots from this callsign again
+=== 8^SET/BADDX <call>..^Stop words we do not wish to see in the callsign field
+of a dx spot being propagated
+=== 8^UNSET/BADDX <call>..^Allow a word to be seen again in a DX spot
+Setting a word as 'baddx' will prevent spots with that word in the
+callsign field of a DX spot from going any further. They will not be
+displayed and they will not be sent onto other nodes.
+
+The word must be wriiten in full, no wild cards are allowed eg:-
+
+ set/baddx FORSALE VIDEO FR0G
+
+To allow a word again, use the following command ...
+
+ unset/baddx VIDEO
+
+=== 8^SET/BADNODE <call>..^Stop spots from this node being propagated
+=== 8^UNSET/BADNODE <call>..^Allow spots from this node again
Setting a callsign as a 'badnode' will prevent spots from that node
going any further. They will not be displayed and they will not be
sent onto other nodes.
-The call can be a full or partial call (or a prefix), eg:-
+The call must be a full eg:-
set/badnode K1TTT
-will stop anything from K1TTT (including any SSID's)
+will stop anything from K1TTT. If you want SSIDs as well then you must
+enter them specifically.
unset/badnode K1TTT
Use with extreme care. This command may well be superceeded by FILTERing.
+=== 8^SET/BADSPOTTER <call>..^Stop spots from this callsign being propagated
+=== 8^UNSET/BADSPOTTER <call>..^Allow spots from this callsign again
+Setting a callsign as a 'badspotter' will prevent spots from this callsign
+going any further. They will not be displayed and they will not be
+sent onto other nodes.
+
+The call must be written in full, no wild cards are allowed eg:-
+
+ set/badspotter VE2STN
+
+will stop anything from VE2STN. If you want SSIDs as well then you must
+enter them specifically.
+
+ unset/badspotter VE2STN
+
+will allow spots from him again.
+
+Use with extreme care. This command may well be superceded by FILTERing.
+
=== 0^SET/BEEP^Add a beep to DX and other messages on your terminal
=== 0^UNSET/BEEP^Stop beeps for DX and other messages on your terminal
default values, if a node has not responded to a ping within 15 minutes,
it is disconnected.
+You can set this parameter between 1 and 9.
+
+It is STRONGLY recommended that you don't change the default.
+
=== 0^SET/PAGE <lines per page>^Set the lines per page
Tell the system how many lines you wish on a page when the number of line
of output from a command is more than this. The default is 20. Setting it
You can use this command to set a different interval. Please don't.
-But if you do the value you enter is treated as minutes up 60 and seconds
+But if you do the value you enter is treated as minutes up 30 and seconds
for numbers greater than that.
This is used also to help determine when a link is down at the far end
(as certain cluster software doesn't always notice), see SET/OBSCOUNT
for more information.
+If you must change it (and it may be useful for internet connected nodes
+on dynamic IP addresses that go away after a set time of usage) the time
+can be specified as:-
+
+ 5 which if less than 30 is converted to minutes otherwise is
+ taken as the no of seconds between pings.
+ 120s 120 seconds
+ 5m 5 minutes
+ 1h 1 hour
+
+Please be aware that this causes traffic to occur on the link, setting
+this value too low may annoy your neighbours beyond the point of
+endurance!
+
+You can switch this off by setting it to 0.
+
=== 9^SET/PRIVILEGE <n> <call> [<call..]^Set privilege level on a call
Set the privilege level on a callsign. The privilege levels that pertain
to commands are as default:-
=== 0^SET/WX^Allow WX messages to come out on your terminal
=== 0^UNSET/WX^Stop WX messages coming out on your terminal
-=== 6^SHOW/BADNODE^Show all the bad nodes in the system
+=== 1^SHOW/BADDX^Show all the bad dx calls in the system
+Display all the bad dx callsigns in the system, see SET/BADDX
+for more information.
+
+=== 1^SHOW/BADNODE^Show all the bad nodes in the system
Display all the bad node callsigns in the system, see SET/BADNODE
for more information.
+=== 1^SHOW/BADSPOTTER^Show all the bad spotters in the system
+Display all the bad spotter's callsigns in the system, see SET/BADSPOTTER
+for more information.
+
=== 0^SHOW/DATE [<prefix>|<callsign>]^Show the local time
This is very nearly the same as SHOW/TIME, the only difference the format
of the date string if no arguments are given.
=== 9^SHOW/LOCKOUT^Show the list of locked out or excluded callsigns
+=== 8^SHOW/LOG [<callsign>]^Show excerpts from the system log

+show output from the log associated with that callsign.
+
=== 0^SHOW/MOON [<prefix>|<callsign>]^Show Moon rise and set times
Show the Moon rise and set times for a (list of) prefixes or callsigns,
together with the azimuth and elevation of the sun currently at those
and returns any information available for that callsign. This service
is provided for users of this software by http://www.qrz.com
+=== 0^SHOW/ROUTE <callsign> ...^Show the route to the callsign
+This command allows you to see to which node the callsigns specified are
+connected. It is a sort of inverse sh/config.
+
+sh/route n2tly
+
=== 0^SHOW/SATELLITE <name> [<hours> <interval>]^Show tracking data
