Description

This is the README file for Socket-1.1.

What is it?

The program Socket implements access to TCP sockets from shell level. First written for the need to open a server socket and read and write to the socket interactively for testing purposes, it quickly evolved into a generic tool providing the socket interface for shell script and interactive use.

Please send any comments, suggestions, bug reports etc. to me:
