The -tx flag causes the client to start transmitting immediately
The -channel flag causes the client to join the specified channel.

A group of ham radio operators are using barnard as part of a remote rig control mechanism. These command line flags make it possible to start barnard in a channel and immediately start transmitting. The hams are using these flags to broadcast their radio rx audio into mumble.

For example, to join 'My Channel' and start transmitting immediately:
	./barnard -tx -channel "My Channel"
Properly close termbox so that the user's cursor
will work correctly. Without this fix, the user needs to run
`reset` to restore normal console functionality.
