NAME

       ekg2-remote - remote User Interface for EKG2

SYNOPSIS

       ekg2-remote [OPTIONS] REMOTE-ENDPOINT

DESCRIPTION

       ekg2-remote  is  a  program  which  provides  a  remote  user interface to an EKG2 instance that uses the
       "remote" plugin. It connects to EKG2 via a socket, and lets you use the program  as  if  it  was  running
       locally.

       The  motivation  behind this program was to be able to use EKG2 on a low performance machine with limited
       memory and CPU resources.
