Well people, here it is!

pConv is a Perl/Tk based graphical ham converse client.

Here are some of its features;

. Command line history
. Tab completion of callsign of the last person to msg you
. Individual colours for each call on channel
. Switchable backgrounds, light gray and black
. Logging to a file
. Interpretation of commands sent on the channel;
  - :ping
  - :time
  - :<yourcall> time
  - :<yourcall> sysinfo
  - :<yourcall> uptime
. Settable font for the received window
. Connection information displayed at top of screen
. Escape clears input line
. /me messages appear in same colour as user messges.
. Preferences menu
  - set defaults for new connections
  - add connections
  - edit connections
  - delete connections
. Highlights DX Spots, announcements and wwv information if output is sent as
  if the connection is direct to a dxcluster. (Experimental)
. Separate window listing people on channel with actions available when you
click
  on the callsigns.
. Action menu for doing things like /who, /cstat and /links.

pConv is designed to connect to TPP and similar converse servers but it should
work with older servers with some loss of functionality.
