man estic (Commandes) - Administration program for ISTEC ISDN PABX.

NAME

estic - Administration program for ISTEC ISDN PABX.

SYNOPSIS

estic [-c cmd] [-n] [-p port]

xestic [-g geometry] [-geometry geometry]

Description

This program allows you the administration of the ISDN private automatic branch exchanges ISTEC 1003 and ISTEC 1008 (produced by the German company Emmerich). The documentation under /usr/share/doc/estic/is mostly in the German language.

The main configuration file is estic.ini. The program looks first in the current directory, than in the home directory and than under /etc for this file.

While estic is for use from the console, xestic is a shell script that runs estic inside of an x-terminal-emulation.

Options

-c cmd
cmd is a command that will be executed upon startup of estic. This is useful for cronjobs, e.g. for swaping configuration with estic -c loadconfig tag.ic.
-g geometry --geometry geometry
This option specifies the preferred size and position of the xestic window; see X(1) for the syntax.
-n
No ISTEC is available, only edit parameters.
-p port
Use ttyS1..ttyS63 to specify the serial port on which the ISTEC is hooked on.

Thanks also to Martin Schulze <joey@debian.org>, Paul Slootman <paul@debian.org>, and Roland Rosenfeld <roland@debian.org> for good suggestions. Special thanks to Joey, who sent corrections to this manual page, that I included after only 109 days.

Bugs

It is possible, that there are a lot of problems with different versions of the ISTEC firmware. Unfortunately these problem are very unlikely to be fixed. The ISTEC PABX is more or less outdated, the original author of estic does not support the program anymore and the communication protocol between the ISTEC PABX and the PC is not officially specified by the company Emmerich.

The program is not very UNIXish. E.g. the keyboard shortcuts are not like those in GNU Emacs or as in vi. Please send patches if you can fix this.

Please tell me about grammatical or spelling errors!
