3This is a small test program which I have had around since we wrote
4the RFC 2783 API.

6Options:
7	-a 	capture assert flank
8	-c	capture clear flank
9	(if neither -a -c: capture all available flanks)
10	-A	output on assert flank
11	-C	output on clear flank
12	(if neither -A -C: output on all flanks)
13	-e	enable echo (all possible flanks)
14	-u	unbuffered output.
15	-v	verbose.

17The output looks like:
