- amboar 13y agoDropped into the comments to mention socat. I use it regularly to debug serial and multicast issues or to lash up network logging for random shell scripts. It's a very valuable addition to the toolbox IMO. Edit: somehow my phone managed to post this comment three times. I've deleted the others

- sargun 13y agoI really like socat, and use it pretty regularly for interfacing with unix sockets. Ncat, and socat have a divergent featureset though. Some combination of the two yields good results.
