NAME
emp_hub - Empire multiplexer
SYNOPSIS
emp_hub [-persistent] [-debug] [-help] [-mirror] host port localport
DESCRIPTION
emp_hub allows multiple clients to simultaneously connect to a single Empire country. This allows you to
use both a fast and a smart client simultaneously. It also permits multiple corulers to log in at once.
Parameters
host Hostname of the upstream server.
port TCP/IP port number the empire server is running on.
localport TCP/IP port number the emp_hub should listen to for incoming client connections.
-mirror Copy commands and replies to all clients using new protocols. Currently only the lafe client
is aware of these protocols, though most clients will ignore them.
-persistent Normally emp_hub exits after the last client disconnects. With this option emp_hub does not
exit, and will wait for new clients to connect. emp_hub must be killed by the user using the
kill command.
-help Brief usage information.
-debug Print lots of messages, including everything sent and received by a client. Useful when
debugging either emp_hub , a client, or the server.

BUGS
Due to the nature of the empire protocol, only one client may have input focus at one time. If a client
pauses at a context sensitive prompt from the server, all other clients will be unable to send data.
