"Open bidirectional communication channels from the command line")
(description
"socat is a relay for bidirectional data transfer between two independent
data channels---files, pipes, devices, sockets, etc. It can create
\"listening\" sockets, named pipes, and pseudo terminals.
socat can be used, for instance, as TCP port forwarder, as a shell interface
to UNIX sockets, IPv6 relay, for redirecting TCP oriented programs to a serial
line, to logically connect serial lines on different computers, or to
establish a relatively secure environment (su and chroot) for running client
or server shell scripts with network connections. ")
