# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' # on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must # make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':'. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| socat: socat (Multipurpose relay - SOcket CAT) socat: socat: Socat is a command line based utility that establishes two socat: bidirectional byte streams and transfers data between them.
