+ucspi-tcp (djb's TCP client-server command-line tools)
+
+ucspi-tcp includes several programs. tcpserver waits for incoming
+connections and, for each connection, runs a program of your choice,
+it provides useful environment variables, resource limits, and access
+control features. tcpclient makes a TCP connection and runs a program of
+your choice. It sets up the same environment variables as tcpserver.
+
+Also included are recordio, a tool that monitors all the input and output
+of a server, and several sample clients built on top of tcpclient: who@,
+date@, finger@, http@, tcpcat, and mconnect.
