"This example demonstrates how to use the UHD C++ API to create\n"
"an ASCII-art FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) spectrum display in the\n"
"terminal.\n"
"The example program configures a single USRP device for reception of an\n"
"RF signal from a single channel and displays the spectrum of the complex\n"
"baseband data as an ASCII-art spectrum plot in the terminal. It supports\n"
"interactive adjustment of frequency, sample rate, gain, bandwidth, and\n"
"display parameters using keyboard controls. The example program operates\n"
"on a single channel and is intended for quick visualization and\n"
"monitoring of received signals.\n"
"\n"
"Keyboard Controls:\n"
" The example program supports interactive adjustment of key parameters\n"
" using the keyboard:\n"
" f/F - Decrease/increase center frequency\n"
" r/R - Decrease/increase sample rate\n"
" b/B - Decrease/increase bandwidth\n"
" g/G - Decrease/increase gain (if supported by USRP)\n"
" p/P - Decrease/increase receive power reference level\n"
" (if supported by USRP)\n"
" l/L - Decrease/increase reference level\n"
" d/D - Decrease/increase dynamic range\n"
" s/S - Decrease/increase display frame rate\n"
" t/T - Decrease/increase tuning step size\n"
" c - Toggle display of keyboard controls\n"
" Arrow keys - Fine-tune center frequency\n"
" Any other key (or Ctrl + C) - Exit the program\n"
" All changes are applied immediately to the USRP device and the\n"
" spectrum display.\n"
" Note: The step size for frequency, sample rate, and bandwidth\n"
" adjustments is set by the --step option.\n"
