#
# cmdsrv.tcl --
#
# Simple socket command server. Supports many simultaneous sessions.
# Works in thread mode with each new connection receiving a new thread.
#  
# Usage:
#    cmdsrv::create port ?-idletime value? ?-initcmd cmd?
# 
#    port         Tcp port where the server listens
#    -idletime    # of sec to idle before tearing down socket (def: 300 sec)
#    -initcmd     script to initialize new worker thread (def: empty)
#
# Example:
#
#    # tclsh8.4
#    % source cmdsrv.tcl
#    % cmdsrv::create 5000 -idletime 60
#    % vwait forever
#
#    Starts the server on the port 5000, sets idle timer to 1 minute. 
#    You can now use "telnet" utility to connect.
