theft-server - CLC-INTERCAL networking SYNOPSIS
theft-server --port=port [options] DESCRIPTION
The theft-server mediates the communication between two CLC-INTERCAL programs with the internet extension. It keeps a list of process IDs running on the current computer so it can provide lists of processes which can be engaged in INTERcal NETworking; it also responds to broadcasts allowing other CLC-INTERCAL programs on the LAN to know there is something happening on this computer. Under normal conditions, the theft-server is started automatically by a CLC-INTERCAL programs with the internet extension (unless one is already running, of course!) because the extension cannot operate without a server on the local computer. However, it is possible to start one manually, for example from a /etc/init.d or /etc/rc.d. If the program is started automatically, it uses defaults for all its configuration; when started manually, it accepts the following options: -pport / --port=port Uses the given port (number or service name) for communications, instead of using the default one from a configuration file. -lseconds / --linger=seconds Waits the specified time for a connection, then exit. The default is 600 (10 minutes). The timeout applies when the program starts and also when all existing connections are closed. This allows the program to be started on demand by CLC-INTERCAL programs, and to auto- matically exit when no longer required (unless more programs start up during the timeout). This function is disabled by setting the timeout to 0 (i.e. -l0); for example, if starting the server from /etc/init.d or equivalent one would disable the timeout. -d / --debug Tells everything it's doing (on Standard Error). Also, prevents the program from detaching from the current terminal and going into the background. BUGS

INTERCAL::Charset::Baudot(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation INTERCAL::Charset::Baudot(3pm) NAME
Charset::Baudot - allows to use Baudot string constants in ASCII programs (and v.v.) SYNOPSIS
use Charset::Baudot 'baudot2ascii'; my $a = baudot2ascii"(Baudot text)"; DESCRIPTION
Charset::Baudot defines functions to convert between a subset of ASCII and a subset of nonstandard Baudot - the original Baudot allows only letters, numbers, and some punctuation. We assume that a "Shift to letters" code while already in letters mode means "Shift to lowercase" and "Shift to figures" while already in figures mode means "Shift to symbols". This allows to use up to 120 characters. However, for sim- plicity some characters are available in multiple sets, so the total is less than that. Two functions, baudot2ascii and ascii2baudot, are exportable (but not exported by default). They do the obvious thing to their first argu- ment and return the transformed string. BAUDOT CHARACTER TABLE
The following are the characters recognised. As described, the "shift" characters have nonstandard meaning. set Letters Lowercase Figures Symbols code 00 N/A N/A N/A N/A 01 E e 3 Cents 02 L/F L/F L/F L/F (line feed) 03 A a - + 04 Space Space Space Tab 05 S s BELL 06 I i 8 # 07 U u 7 = 08 C/R C/R C/R C/R (carriage return) 09 D d $ * 10 R r 4 { 11 J j ' ~ 12 N n , XOR 13 F f ! | 14 C c : ^ 15 K k ( < 16 T t 5 [ 17 Z z " } 18 W w ) > 19 L l 2 ] 20 H h N/A backspace 21 Y y 6 @ 22 P p 0 N/A 23 Q q 1 POUND 24 O o 9 NOT 25 B b ? delete 26 G g & N/A 27 Figures Figures Symbols Symbols 28 M m . % 29 X x / _ 30 V v ; N/A 31 Lowercase Lowercase Letters Letters COPYRIGHT
