Short: Links stdio to socket (AmiTCP/IP and AS225r2)
Author: Sam Yee (samy@sfu.ca | samy@res.com | fido: 1:153/765)
Uploader: samy@sfu.ca
Type: comm/tcp
socklink basically links the standard input/output (stdio) to a TCP/IP
socket connected to a host. It reads data from a socket, writes it to
standard output. Conversely, it reads from standard input and writes
to the socket. It handles data asynchronously and in both directions
simultaneously. No data translation is performed. This "pipe"
enables BBS users, who lack Internet access, to use serial device
based network clients (such IRC clients) through an Internet-connected
Amiga BBS.
socklink runs on most modern BBSes capable of standard Command Line
Interface (CLI) doors. It supports AmiTCP, AS225r2, and MLINK.
