21 An alternative JT65 decoder executable kvasd for i386 Ubuntu is
23 available at http://www.physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/kvasd . This
24 decoder is not open-source, is not included in the wsjtx package, and
25 is not required for JT65 decoding.

28 -r, --rig-name[=RIGNAME]
29 Enable multiple instances of the wsjtx(1) application to run
30 concurrently. Each RIGNAME must be unique. One instance may use no
31 RIGNAME. If this option is not supplied then only one instance of
32 wsjtx(1) may be run at any time.
33 -v, --version
35 Display the application version.
36 -h,--help
38 Display usage information.
39 --test-mode
41 When this option is provided all writable files will be placed in a
42 special test location (~/.qttest). This option is only for
43 application testing and is not designed for normal operations. Use
44 with caution.
45
47 Most of the following files are in a directory path containing the
48 directory name WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME] which indicates the value of the
49 command line option --rig-name=RIGNAME to indicate multiple instances
50 of wsjtx running concurrently. All writable files listed below are
51 therefore unique to each concurrent instance of wsjtx. If the
52 --rig-name command line option is not supplied or the RIGNAME argument
53 is not supplied then the directory paths below will have the directory
54 WSJT-X.
55 ~/.config/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME].ini
57 This file stores the application configuration settings.
58 ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/ALL.txt
60 ALL.txt contains a record of transmitted and received messages and
61 other activity such as frequency or band changes.
62 ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/save/
64 Is the default location for saved .WAV files recorded by the
65 application. The .WAV file save location may be changed in the
66 applications settings dialog.
67 ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/save/samples/
69 Sample .WAV files suppied with the application are found in this
70 directory, they may be played back in the application and are
71 referred to in the user guide tutorial sections.
72 ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ -RIGNAME]/timer.out
74 This is a diagnostic file that records decode performance profiling
75 information.
76 ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/cty.dat
78 This file is not required as a version of it is embedded in the
79 application, but if you wish an updated version can be placed here.
80 If present that version will be used in preference to the embedded
81 version.
82 ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/wsjtx.log
84 This is a plain text CSV record of logged QSOs.
85 ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/wsjtx_log.adi
87 This is a record of QSOs logged in the ADIF format which is
88 suitable for import into many Ham Radio logging programs.
