[GCARC] CAT programming.

[Jon Pearce]

Bot - the easiest way that I've found to do stuff like this is with the rigctl (or rigctld) commands in the hamlib library. They let you control the rig through either a comment-line interface (rigctl) or thru commands sent to a tcp port (rigctld). You can probably activate your tuner through a single command in a batch file.  Much easier than trying to program CAT commands.  Check it out: https://hamlib.sourceforge.net/html/rigctl.1.html

I have a simple need, to send my FT-991 the instruction to activate the tuner.  Can anyone point me in the direction for programming this.  I have a background in c and have dabbled in assembler.  I rarely compile anything anymore - my needs have evolved to LAMP.  Some code examples would be appreciated.
The program simply sends the string to the cat controller.  No bells or whistles needed.
Appreciate your help!
