Title: netpipes.dsl Description: Allows manipulation of BSD TCP/IP sockets Version: 4.2-3 Author: Robert Forsman Original-site: ftp://ftp.purplefrog.com/pub/netpipes/ Copying-policy: GNU GPL -----==[ Color = red Filesize: 51K ]==----- Extension by: wdef Comments: The netpipes package makes TCP/IP streams usable in shell scripts. It can also simplify client/server code by allowing the programmer to skip all the tedious programming bits related to sockets and concentrate on writing a filter/service. NOTE: The debian maintainer has renamed getpeername to getsockname (and removed symlink getsockname) due to conflict with tcputils Extension not pruned, it's only 51K and the docs are useful.
