+ tftp.lua -- Trivial FTP client
5
+
6
+ This module implements file retrieval by the TFTP protocol.
7
+ Its main use was to test the UDP code, but since someone
8
+ found it usefull, I turned it into a module that is almost
9
+ official (no uploads, yet).

11
+ dict.lua -- Dict client
12
+
13
+ The dict.lua module started with a cool simple client
14
+ for the DICT protocol, written by Luiz Henrique Figueiredo.
15
+ This new version has been converted into a library, similar
16
+ to the HTTP and FTP libraries, that can be used from within
17
+ any luasocket application. Take a look on the source code
18
+ and you will be able to figure out how to use it.
19
+
20
+ lp.lua -- LPD client library
21
+
22
+ The lp.lua module implements the client part of the Line
23
+ Printer Daemon protocol, used to print files on Unix
24
+ machines. It is courtesy of David Burgess! See the source
25
+ code and the lpr.lua in the examples directory.

32
+ Quoted-Printable and end-of-line marker conversions.

34
+ get.lua -- file retriever
35
+
36
+ This little program is a client that uses the FTP and
37
+ HTTP code to implement a command line file graber. Just
38
+ run
39
+
40
+ lua get.lua <remote-file> [<local-file>]
41
+
42
+ to download a remote file (either ftp:// or http://) to
43
+ the specified local file. The program also prints the
44
+ download throughput, elapsed time, bytes already downloaded
45
+ etc during download.
46
+
47
+ check-memory.lua -- checks memory consumption
48
+
49
+ This is just to see how much memory each module uses.
50
+
51
+ dispatch.lua -- coroutine based dispatcher
52
+
53
+ This is a first try at a coroutine based non-blocking
54
+ dispatcher for LuaSocket. Take a look at 'check-links.lua'
55
+ and at 'forward.lua' to see how to use it.
56
+
57
+ check-links.lua -- HTML link checker program
58
+
59
+ This little program scans a HTML file and checks for broken
60
+ links. It is similar to check-links.pl by Jamie Zawinski,
61
+ but uses all facilities of the LuaSocket library and the Lua
62
+ language. It has not been thoroughly tested, but it should
63
+ work. Just run
64
+
65
+ lua check-links.lua [-n] {<url>} > output
66
+
67
+ and open the result to see a list of broken links. Make sure
68
+ you check the '-n' switch. It runs in non-blocking mode,
69
+ using coroutines, and is MUCH faster!
70
+
71
+ forward.lua -- coroutine based forward server
72
+
73
+ This is a forward server that can accept several connections
74
+ and transfers simultaneously using non-blocking I/O and the
75
+ coroutine-based dispatcher. You can run, for example
76
+
77
+ lua forward.lua 8080:proxy.com:3128
78
+
79
+ to redirect all local conections to port 8080 to the host
80
+ 'proxy.com' at port 3128.
81
+
82
+ unix.c and unix.h
83
+
84
+ This is an implementation of Unix local domain sockets and
85
+ demonstrates how to extend LuaSocket with a new type of
86
+ transport. It has been tested on Linux and on Mac OS X.
