NAME

       beer - Graphical frontend to SAFT

SYNOPSIS

       beer [ gtk-options ] [ -v | -h ] [ -m | -r | -s ]

DESCRIPTION

       Gerstensaft  is an easy to use graphical frontend to the SAFT protocol,
       i.e.  sendfile(1), sendmsg(1)  and  receive(1).   It  features  sending
       messages,  files  and  directories,  adding  comments,  and  provides a
       history of recipients.  Since sendfile(1),  sendmsg(1)  and  receive(1)
       are  called  for  real  operations  you’ll  need to have these programs
       installed as well.

OPTIONS

       -h     Display help and exit.

       -m     Run in message mode.

       -r     Run in receive mode.

       -s     Run in send mode.

       -v     Display version and exit.

NAMING

       Gerstensaft is German and means barley juice translated word  by  word.
       So  in  short it’s nothing less than simply beer, hence the name of the
       binary.  Although beer is Bier.
