Direct Connect Text Client

Text console client of well known DC (Direct Connect) protocol which offers peer-based file-sharing. In practice it works better than gnutella and other similar systems as it allows dc hubs (servers) administators to require clients to share a specified amount of data. The amount is usually based on type of client's connection and it is used not to hurt or exclude anybody but to make file sharing "fair play".

It is *really* not intended to be used "by hand". Instead you should install and use the dcgui program.
