DESCRIPTION

       Linphonec   is   the   console   version  of  originally  Gnome  internet  phone  linphone
       (http://www.linphone.org) .
       Linphonec can be started without arguments. It doesn't  need  any  config  file  to  start
       correctly  and  will create a default one at the first startup if the file does not exist.
       By default the path of the  config  file  is  ~/.linphonerc  .   Most  parameters  (proxy,
       passwords)  can  be changed from the command line, for some of them (path of sound rings),
       you'll need to edit the .linphonerc config file.
       Once linphonec has started, linphonec wait for some  commands  and  is  ready  to  receive
       calls.
       The most important commands are

       call <sip url> : to call someone. A sip url is in the form sip:user@host

       terminate      : to terminate a call

       answer    : to accept an incoming call.

       help : to display interactive help.

       OPTIONS

              the range 0..5 .
