This example shows a simple talkback server. Change the
address and port variables
to suit your setup and execute. You may then connect to the
server with a command similar to: telnet 192.168.1.53
10000 (where the address and port match your
setup). Anything you type will then be output on the server
side, and echoed back to you. To disconnect, enter 'quit'.
