+simple utility which reads and writes data across network connections

+Netcat is a simple Unix utility which reads and writes data across
+network connections using TCP or UDP protocol.  It is designed to be a
+reliable "back-end" tool that can be used directly or easily driven by
+other programs and scripts.  At the same time it is a feature-rich
+network debugging and exploration tool, since it can create almost any
+kind of connection you would need and has several interesting built-in
+capabilities.
+
+Some of netcat's major features are:
+
+	Outbound or inbound connections, TCP or UDP, to or from any ports
+	Full DNS forward/reverse checking, with appropriate warnings
+	Ability to use any local source port
+	Ability to use any locally-configured network source address
+	Built-in port-scanning capabilities, with randomizer
+	Built-in loose source-routing capability
+	Can read command line arguments from standard input
+	Slow-send mode, one line every N seconds
+	Hex dump of transmitted and received data
+	Optional ability to let another program service established connections
+	Optional telnet-options responder
+
+A very short list of potential uses:
+
+	Script backends
+	Scanning ports and inventorying services, automated probes
+	Backup handlers
+	File transfers
+	Server testing, simulation, debugging, and hijacking
+	Firewall testing
+	Proxy gatewaying
+	Network performance testing
+	Address spoofing tests
+	Protecting X servers
+	1001 other uses you'll likely come up with
