# conquestsh(6)

a Conquest shell for telnet players

## NAME

conquestsh - a Conquest shell for telnet players

## SYNOPSIS

**conquestsh**

## DESCRIPTION

**conquestsh** is a very simple program that executes the curses conquest client, passing certain options, notably **-t**.  It is intended to be the 'shell' of an account that an operator has setup to support telnet users.  See the **conquestd** manpage for information on setting up a server for telnet access.  In general, you will never want to support telnet servers.  Users should use an appropriate client.  I run a telnet server here for the time being so that users can get a (curses) taste, but that may go away in the future.

**conquestsh** is a very simple program that should be edited for your tastes.
