\subsubsection*{\bf XParty}

\begin{itemize}
 \item {\bf Name:}     XParty (XPhone)

 \item {\bf Location:} /usr/local/x11/xparty

 \item {\bf Type:} Communication Tool
                   
 \item {\bf Characterization:} 
                   Multi-user/multi-display communication utility.
                   Allows several people to perform a ``Network Conference''.
                   The user who starts the conference leads the discussion
                   and has several privileges. Motif based. Can also
                   be used for one-way communication.

 \item {\bf Functions:}
       \begin{itemize}
        \item {Invocation:}  {\tt /usr/local/bin/xparty}
        \item {Termination:} {\tt Quit}-Button
        \item {Help:}        {\tt help}-Button
        \item {Example:}     Start program with {\tt xparty}.
                             Press {\tt AddR}-Button to add a recipient.
                             Select the new recipient by pressing the 
                             corresponding button in the `Recipients'
                             part of the screen. If the recipient accepts
                             the call he will be added to the `on the air'
                             list and the communication can begin.
        \item {Other important functions:}  One way communication by 
                                            pressing the {\tt one-way} button
                                            before sending.

 \item {\bf Installation:}  Parameters can be set in your own `\verb+~+/.Xdefaults' file.
                            See the file\mbox{`/usr/lib/x11/app-defaults/XParty'}
                            for the default settings.
                            The hidden file \\ `\verb+~+/.xmsg\_hosts' contains a list of
                            recipients (in the format `label@display'). When
                            a new recipient is added in xparty, a new entry
                            is automatically created in this file.

 \item {\bf Manuals:}   xparty man page 
                            % sw-p.
