In the usual Unix/Linux metaphor, these sorts of things are usually
done via individual stand-alone programs, invoked from the shell,
rather than from a monolithic program such as a "TNC command
interpreter emulator."

If the driver is loaded, and the AX.25 interface has been
configured with a portname, then you'd probably want to try
running commands such as:

   beacon -s myport -d HEADSUP "Santa Claus on 14.020 QRO"

or

   call myport W9ZZZ

or something like that.

You can run "listen -a" in another window to monitor the
packet traffic in both directions.
