    Summary: Reads and writes data across network connections using TCP or UDP
    Description: 
    This package contains netcat, a simple utility for reading and writing
    data across network connections, using the TCP or UDP protocols.
    netcat is intended to be a reliable back-end tool which can be used
    directly or easily driven by other programs and scripts.  netcat is
    also a feature-rich network debugging and exploration tool, since
    it can create many different connections and has many built-in
    capabilities.
    
    There are three well-known netcat implementations, see here for
    details: http://pintday.org/downloads/netcat/. This package contains
    OpenBSD utility with improvements from Openwall project.
