pat for Debian
--------------

pat is a Winlink client for amateur radio email.  It supports multiple
transports including telnet, AX.25, WINMOR and ARDOP.  Transports can be used
on radio waves (by licensed amateurs) and other mediums such as the Internet.

pat has both a command line interface and a web interface.  The later is
provided by running its own web server.

The pat README.md clearly states:
    _Pat/wl2k-go is not affiliated with The Winlink Development Team nor the
    Winlink 2000 project [http://winlink.org]._



# pat binary renamed to `pat-winlink' per #994822
The binary and man page have been renamed to avoid namespace clash, from `pat'
to `pat-winlink'.  The "dist" package has a similarly named executable.
