MultiLink (working name): Proposed feature list.

This is what I have planned for MultiLink.  The first version may not have
all of the features listed below, but eventually I plan to incorporate them
all into the package.  Things take time...

o   Uses BSD sockets as it's interface.

    -   Both stream and datagram type sockets supported
    -   Connect to servers on the Amiga, on the Remote UNIX host, or
        on any other host connected to the internet (with the proper
        client).
    -   Accept connections (server sockets) from local clients on the
        Amiga, or remote clients on the UNIX host, or any host on the
        internet.
    -   AS225R2 and AmiTCP shared library emulations.

o   Robust serial link protocol

    -   Up to 64 simultaneous channels.
    -   Prioritized channels
    -   robust byte escaping protocols (for goofy lines :-))
    -   Error detection and correction.
    -   Auto-bps rate adjust for maximum interactive response and
        thruput.
    -   auto-renegotiation.  Can change many options WHILE the link is
        running for performance tuning.  Can reestablish a broken
        connection with the UNIX host.

o   Easy setup and use

    -   Easily compilable UNIX code.
    -   GUI prefs program.
    -   All options determined locally on the Amiga and transmitted to the
        UNIX host on startup.  (no more diddling with command line options
        on EITHER side).
    -   GUI status commodity.  Keep track of the link, adjust priorities,
        change options runtime.
