barnard FORKED by farmergreg

barnard is a terminal-based client for the Mumble voice chat software.

This FORK adds three new features:

• the -tx flag will cause barnard to start transmitting as soon as it is launched.
• the -channel flag will cause barnard to join the given channel.
• display help text on startup

Example:

    ./barnard -insecure -password mypass -server mumble:64738 -username AudioFeed -tx -channel "K9CTS Scanner"
