[con_logfile]

Team Fortress II (TF2) Console Monitor, tf2mon, is an interactive
terminal application that displays scoreboards and player statistics of
an active game. tf2mon can also --rewind and --single-step
through previous games.
tf2mon recognizes and tracks abusive players, such as racists and
cathook-bots. It provides application and in-game key-bindings to
CALLVOTE KICK cheaters/hackers, or mark as racist or suspect.
tf2mon reads TF2's console logfile (con_logfile), creates action
scripts in TF2's cfg/user directory, and binds keys for gamer to
press to take those actions, such as issue SAY and CALLVOTE KICK
commands.
Other in-game key-bindings taunt gamer's last victim/killer with a
CHAT message customized with their name, k/d ratio, rotating spam,
weapon and duel-scores (Taunt and Throe).
By default, tf2mon starts reading con_logfile from its end
(--no-rewind), and --follows its tail.

In-Game Controls, Numpad
While playing TF2, use the Numpad to kick cheaters, and generate
Taunt and death-Throe spam.
Messages are placed into queues, and may be popped off either end.
Queues --> Kicks Admin Spams

To vet new players that have joined the game, tf2mon needs their
steamids, and to get them, gamer must press NUMPAD-DOWNARROW. The
status panel will be highlighted when the monitor needs steamids.
When detected, tf2mon pushes hackers onto the Kicks queue, and
alerts the gamer, who may then press HOME/END to issue CHAT
and CALLVOTE KICK commands.
When gamer kills an opponent, tf2mon pushes a Taunt onto the
Spams queue; on death, a Throe. Enable/disable with F3. Send
with PGUP/PGDN.
The monitor can only push actions onto the queues; gamer must pop
for action to be taken, or clear to discard.
Duels
The user-panel displays battles with opponents, grouped by weapon (and
its state when fired).

Where to Operate
tf2mon works by reading the con_logfile to which TF2 logs
messages during the game. tf2mon can either "tail -f" an active
game, or --rewind and replay saved logfiles. Press Enter in the
admin console to process the next line when in --single-step mode.
Type quit or press ^D to exit.
`One-machine, Two-monitors`
Run `tf2mon` on a secondary monitor, while playing game on
primary monitor.

`Two-machines, SSH`
ssh from another machine and run.

`Two-machines, NFS`
cross-mount TF2's `cfg` tree to another box and run from there.

Terminal Size
tf2mon requires a large terminal. Maximize the window, and use keys
(maybe Ctrl-Minus and Shift-Ctrl-Plus) to resize. The wider the
terminal, the more player data will be displayed:
36x146 minimum
42x173 display personaname
52x211 display realname
62x272 display age/location

Resizable Windows
Drag-and-drop an interior border to resize the windows on either side.
Double-click an interior border to enter Resize Mode.
scroll-wheel and arrows move the border.
click, enter or esc to exit.
Scoreboard

colorized messages to fileno(3), when open to a regular file.
$ tf2mon 2>x 3>y
