# sysutils/socket - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Create tcp socket and connect to stdin/out

    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:
