Branch: pkgsrc-2008Q1, Version: 0.12nb2, Package name: plptools-0.12nb2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

This package is heavily based on two other packages:

- p3nfsd-5.4 by Rudolf Koenig (rfkoenig@immd4.informatik.uni-erlangen.de)
an nfs daemon for Psion series 3 and 5
- plp_1_7 by Philip Proudman
(former email, current address unknown proudman@btinternet.com)

The programs:

ncpd is the daemon which handles the serial link to your Psion.
It listens at port 7501 for local connections and provides
basic PLP/NCP services for the other two programs. It auto-
connects to the psion, even after unplugging/switching off
therefore it can run always in background (if you have a
spare serial-device)

plpftp is a FTP-like program for manipulating files on the Psion.

plpnfsd is a daemon, which provides NFS-like access to your Psion.
It automatically makes the psion's filesystems available below
an NFS-mounted directory (default /mnt/psion).
