-<H2><A NAME="xpaacl">XPAAcl: Access Control for XPA Messaging</A></H2>
-
-<!-- =section xpaacl SYNOPSIS -->
-<H2>Summary</H2>
-<P>
-XPA supports host-based access control for each XPA access point.  You
-can enable/disable access control using the XPA_ACL environment
-variable. You can specify access to specific XPA access points for
-specific machines using the XPA_DEFACL and XPA_ACLFILE environment
-variables. By default, an XPA access point is accessible only to
-processes running on the same machine (same as X Windows).
-
-<!-- =section xpaacl DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-When INET sockets are in use (the default, as specified by the
-<EM>XPA_METHOD</EM> environment variable), XPA supports a host-based
-access control mechanism for individual access points. This mean that
-access can be specified for get, set, or info operations for each
-access point on a machine by machine basis.  For LOCAL sockets, access
-is restricted (by definition) to the host machine.
-
-<P>
-XPA access control is enabled by default, but can be turned off by
-setting the <EM>XPA_ACL</EM> environment variable to <EM>false</EM>.
-In this case, any process can access any XPA server.
-
-<P>
-Assuming that access control is turned on, the ACL for an individual
-XPA access point is set up when that access point is registered
-(although it can be changed later on; see below). This can be done in
-one of two ways:
-
-Firstly, the <EM>XPA_ACLFILE</EM> environment variable can defined to
-point to a file of access controls for individual access points. The format
-of this file is:
-<pre>
- class:name ip acl
-</pre>
-The first argument is a template that specifies the class:name of the
-access point covered by this ACL. See
-<A HREF="./template.html">XPA Access Points and Templates</A>
-for more information about xpa templates.
-
-<P>
-The second argument is the IP address (in human-readable format) of
-the machine which is being given access.  This argument can be
-<EM>*</EM> to match all IP addresses.  It also can be <EM>$host</EM>
-to match the IP address of the current host.
-
-<P>
-The third argument is a string combination of <EM>s</EM>, <EM>g</EM>,
-or <EM>i</EM> to allow <EM>xpaset</EM>, <EM>xpaget</EM>, or
-<EM>xpainfo</EM> access respectively.  The ACL argument can be
-<EM>+</EM> to give <EM>sgi</EM> access or it can be <EM>-</EM> to turn
-off all access.
-
-<P>
-For example,
-<PRE>
-  *:xpa1  somehost sg
-  *:xpa1  myhost +
-  * * g
-</PRE>
-will allow processes on the machine somehost to make xpaget and xpaset calls,
-allow processes on myhost to make any call, and allow all other hosts to
-make xpaget (but not xpaset) calls.
-
-Secondly, if the <EM>XPA_ACLFILE</EM> does not exist, then a single
-default value for all access points can be specified using the
-<EM>XPA_DEFACL</EM> environment variable.  The default value for this
-variable is:
-<PRE>
-  #define XPA_DEFACL "*:* $host +"
-</PRE>
-meaning that all access points are fully accessible to all processes
-on the current host. Thus, in the absence of any ACL environment variables,
-processes on the current host have full access to all access points
-created on that host. This parallels the X11 xhost mechanism.
-
-<P>
-Access to an individual XPA access point can be changed using the -acl
-parameter for that access point.  For example:
-<PRE>
-  xpaset -p xpa1 -acl "somehost -"
-</PRE>
-will turn off all access control for somehost to the xpa1 access point, while:
-<PRE>
-  xpaset -p XPA:xpa1 -acl "beberly gs"
-</PRE>
-will give beberly xpaget and xpaset access to the access point whose
-class is XPA and whose name is xpa1.
-<P>
-Similarly, the current ACL for a given access point can be retrieved using:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpa1 -acl
-</PRE>
-Of course, you must have xpaget access to this XPA access point to
-retrieve its ACL.
-
-<P>
-Note that the XPA access points registered in the <EM>xpans</EM>
-program also behave according to the ACL rules.  That is, you cannot
-use xpaget to view the access points registered with xpans unless
-you have the proper ACL.
-
-<P>
-Note also when a client request is made to an XPA server, the access
-control is checked when the initial connection is established.  This
-access in effect at this time remains in effect so long as the client
-connection is maintained, regardless of whether the access fro that
-XPA is changed later on.
-
-<P>
-We recognize that host-based access control is only relatively secure
-and will consider more stringent security (e.g., private key) in the
-future if the community requires such support.

-<H2>XPA ChangeLog</H2>
-
-<P>
-This ChangeLog covers the XPA 2 implementation. It will be updated
-as we continue to develop and improve XPA.  The up-to-date version can be 
-found <A HREF="http://hea-www.harvard.edu/RD/xpa/changelog.html">here</A>.
-
-<H2> Public Release 2.1.16 (TBD)</H2>
-<ul>
-<li> Ensure that mingw utilizes Windows error codes instead of *nix codes
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Public Release 2.1.15 (July 23, 2013)</H2>
-<ul>
-<p>
-<li> Added support for large data transfers
-<P>
-<li> XPAGet and XPASet now pass size_t instead of int for lengths
-<p>
-<li> Send and receive callbacks now pass size_t instead of int for lengths
-<p>
-<li> Port to mingw (Windows)
-</ul>
-
-
-<H2> Public Release 2.1.14 (June 7, 2012)</H2>
-<ul>
-<P>
-<li> Fixed several memory leaks in the Tcl wrappers (tcl.c).
-<P>
-<li> Use Tcl stubs library for linking shared Tcl, if available.
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Public Release 2.1.13 (April 14, 2011)</H2>
-<ul>
-<P>
-<li> An atexit handler is no longer installed automatically (it crashes
-Tcl 8.5.8 applications). Call XPAAtExit(void) to install the handler.
-<p>
-<li> Removed permission checking from Find() on cygwin systems. This was broken
-by Windows 7.
-<p>
-<li> Removed addition of -no-cpp-precomp flag from gcc 4.2 and beyond (Mac).
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Public Release 2.1.12 (January 26, 2010)</H2>
-<ul>
-<p>
-<li> Added XPA_HOST environment variable to allow users to specify
-the hostname (and hence, ip) component of the INET method id. This is
-useful, for example, if you want to register an access point using a
-VPN-generated IP instead of the canonical IP.
-<p>
-<li> Fix typo in Tcl binding to xpainfo causing a crash after 2 invocations.
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Public Release 2.1.11 (December 7, 2009)</H2>
-<ul>
-<p>
-<li> Generalized XPANSKeepAlive() to send messages to xpans, proxy xpans, or
-both. The default is to send just to proxies (e.g. chandra-ed).
-<p>
-<li> Changed XPANSKeepAlive() to send an in-band new-line char to
-xpans, changed xpans to handle an in-band new-line as a keep-alive
-message. Necessitated by Cisco routers that clear the URG flag in
-a TCP packet, breaking OOB data transfer for the whole Internet, as
-well as the OOB-based keep-alive implemented in xpans.
-<p>
-<li> In xpans, print warning when the keep-alive option switch is used.
-<p>
-<li> Port to mingw (thanks to B.Schoenhammer)
-<p>
-<li> Change OOB character sent by xpans keepalive to a space, trying to working around cisco routers that force OOB data into the inbound stream.
-<p>
-<li> fix gcc fprintf warning in xpans.c
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Public Release 2.1.10 (September 1, 2009)</H2>
-<ul>
-<p>
-<li> Update mklib and configure.ac to support 64-bit builds on Macs.
-<p>
-<li> Fixed bug in XPAAccess() in which the returned names could have an extra
-(bogus) character when the target is an explicit ip:port or local socket file.
-<p>
-<li> Add setjmp/longjmp support to xalloc.
-<p>
-<li> Add XPASaveJmp(void *env) as a high-level interface to xalloc_savejmp();
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Internal Release 2.1.9</H2>
-<ul>
-<p>
-<li> Fixed a bug that prevented an access point starting with a number
-from being recognized peoperly. NB: a pure number still signifies a
-port on the current machine. Also num:num signifies ip:port, where ip
-can be a pure hex value or the canonical form vvv.xxx.yyy.zzz.
-<p>
-<li> Modified internal Launch() routine to use posix_spawn(), if necessary.
-This is required for OS X 10.5 (leopard), which frowns upon use of fork()
-and exec(). Also modified zprocess routines to use Launch().
-<p>
-<li> Added XPASetFree(xpa, void (*myfree)(void *)) routine to allow callbacks
-to specify a free routine other than malloc free (e.g. Perl garbage collection).
-<p>
-<li> XPACmdAdd() now checks to ensure that it was passed an XPA struct created
-by XPACmdNew().
-<p>
-<li> Change launch.h to xlaunch.h to avoid conflict with OS X.
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Public Release 2.1.8 (1 November 2007)</H2>
-<ul>
-<p>
-<li> A public release to complete current XPA development work.
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.1.7b[1,2] (Feb 22, 2006; March 8, 2007)</H2>
-<ul>
-
-<p>
-<li> Added a convenience null to the end of the buffers returned by XPAGet.
-
-<p>
-<li> Added code to avoid calling atexit routine if a fork'ed child
-calls exit() instead of _exit().
-
-<p>
-<li> Added XPA_CLIENT_DOXPA environment variable to turn off client
-processing of xpa server requests.
-
-<p>
-<li> Added --version to xpaset, xpaget, xpainfo, xpaaccess, xpans to
-display XPA version and exit.
-
-<p>
-<li> Added support for integrating XPA into a Gtk loop.
-
-<p>
-<li> xpaaccess now returns its answer in the error code as well as to stdout
-(without the -n switch, it returns 1 for a match, with the -n switch,
-the number of matches is returned).
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed bug which prevented xpans from being started up automatically
-by an xpa server if its pathname contained a space character.
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed bug in MINGW port of xpans in which an XPA server that
-terminated via an interrupt was not being properly removed from the
-list of registered access points.
-
-<p>
-<li> Added XPA_LOGNAME to override LOGNAME when registering username
-
-<p>
-<li> Upgraded swish-e indexing code to 2.4.5.
-
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.1.6 (4 May 2005)</H2>
-<ul>
-
-<p>
-<li> Added -P switch to xpans to enable experimental proxy support
-(default is disabled).  An argument of 1 processes proxy requests in
-the same thread as xpans requests, while an argument of 2 processes
-proxy requests in a separate thread. (The latter is recommended to
-avoid xpans timeouts, since xpa callback processing can take a long
-time.)
-
-<p> 
-<li> Added ability to build shared libraries (done automatically with
-configure --enable-shared) with compilers other than gcc.
-
-<p>
-<li> Made yet another attempt to build shared libraries under OS X.
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed a server bug in Tcl support under Windows (introduced early
-in 2.1.6) which caused an occasional SEGV.
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed race condition in cases where 2 or more servers makes client calls
-to one another.
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed bug in the XPA handler routine in which an access point was
-turned off if an error occurred in that routine (as opposed to the
-user-defined callback routine).
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed race condition when "ack=false" flag (or -n) is used with XPASet()
-(or xpaset).
-
-<p>
-<li> Added defensive code to XPA handler to ensure that the passed XPA record
-is valid.
-
-<p>
-<li> Tcl/XPA servers such as ds9 were not turning off select() on the
-xpa channels inside an xpa callback, as required. This is now fixed.
-
-<p>
-<li> Added timestamps to most server and client error messages if the
-XPA_TIMESTAMP_ERRORS variable is set. This is useful when XPA errors are
-being logged in an error log (e.g. Web/CGI use).
-
-<p>
-<li> Generated PostScript and PDF versions of the help pages.
-
-<p>
-<li> Moved OPTIONS section before (often-lengthy) DESCRIPTION section in
-man pages.
-
-<p>
-<li> All memory allocation now performs error checking on the result.
-
-<p>
-<li> Removed some compiler warnings that surfaced when using gcc -O2.
- 
-<p>
-<li> Updated configure.ac to better support Tcl in Panther with Apple
-Frameworks.
-
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.1.5 (12 January 2004)</H2>
-<ul>
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed bug in XPAPoll(). Erroneously, no requests were being
-processed when maxreq==0. Now, all pending events are processed, as
-per the documentation.
-
-<p>
-<li> Added ack=false to XPAInfo() (and corresponding -n to xpainfo)
-so that client does not wait for a response from the server. This is
-essential in cases where XPA servers wish to send info messages to
-one another without causing a race condition.
-
-<p>
-<li> Generated man pages from the html pages. These are installed
-automatically at build time.
-
-<p>
-<li> The xpans program with Unix sockets now uses a lock file to signal
-that it is running, in order to avoid a potential (but rare) race
-condition at startup.
-
-<p>
-<li> Code that calls Unix-type bind() now manipulate umask() to ensure that
-all users have write permissions to the socket file (OS X apparently uses
-these permissions while previous platforms ignore them).
-
-<p>
-<li> Configure now checks for socklen_t type (OS X does not define it).
-
-<p> 
-<li> Added an atexit function to run XPAFree. The aim here is to delete Unix
-socket files on exiting.
-
-<p>
-<li> Under Windows, the Tcl event-handling code now blocks for 1/1000 of a
-second instead of not blocking at all (which inadvertently used 100% of cpu).
-
-<p>
-<li> Upgraded Tcl/Tk support to 8.4.
-
-<p>
-<li> Made another round of checks was made through all instances of
-strcat, strcpy, etc. to look for potential buffer overflows.  Changed
-all instances of sprintf() to snprintf().
-
-<p>
-<li> Class and name designators are now limited to 1024 characters, for
-no particular reason.
-
-<p>
-<li> The obsolete $SAORD_BIN variable was being added to the path when
-searching for xpans. This is no longer the case.
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed non-ANSI compiler errors in both xpa.c and xpans.c.
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed minor problems to support compilation with g++.
-
-<p>
-<li> Ported to Intel icc and gcc 3.3 compilers.
-
-<p>
-<li> Upgraded autoconf to 2.57. Included in this upgrade is a change that
-makes gcc the default compiler (use "configure CC=cc" to change this).
-Also, by default, the Tcl shared object is no longer automatically built
-if the Tcl libraries are used. Use the --enable-tclshlib switch in 
-configure to enable this feature.
-
-<p>
-<li>  Changed license from public domain to GNU GPL.
-
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.1.4 (24 March 2003)</H2>
-<ul>
-
-<p>
-<li> Made inet method unique, even when hosts are behind a firewall using
-the same ports (on different local machines).
-
-<p>
-<li> The initial connection from an xpa server to a local xpans now is
-controlled by a timeout (default 5 sec, controlled by XPA_CONNECT_TIMEOUT
-variable). This should prevent a hang on connect() if the network
-is not set up correctly.
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed rare race condition when an XPA server callback performed its own
-XPAGet or XPASet call to another XPA server.
-
-<p>
-<li> Use POSIX O_NONBLOCK for non-blocking I/O in fcntl call if it
-exists, instead of O_NDELAY.
-
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.1.3 (26 September 2002)</H2>
-<ul>
-
-<p>
-<li> Added -k [sec] switch to xpans to support sending one-byte keepalive
-messages from xpans to registered xpa servers.
-
-<p>
-<li> Added XPANSKeepAlive routine (and Tcl equivalent) to allow
-xpa servers to send a one-byte keepalive message to xpans.
-
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.1.2 (18 July 2002)</H2>
-<ul>
-
-<p>
-<li> The "-help" reserved command now also displays the XPA version, if
-no explicit sub-commands are specified.
-
-<p>
-<li> Change internal state of xpans proxy to save ip:port value of a
-server behind a NAT firewall. This is required to give some hope of
-distinguishing multiple instances of ds9 running behind NAT.
-
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.1.1 (20 June 2002)</H2>
-<ul>
-
-<p>
-<li> Added a version check between xpans and an access point,
-performed when it gets registered by an XPA server.  If the server
-has a version greater than the xpans version, a warning is issued by
-both programs.
-
-<p>
-<li> Added a boolean XPA_NSREGISTER environment variable to allow an
-XPA server to skip xpans registration. The default is to register with
-the name server.  If set to "false", the access point still is set up
-but it is not registered with an xpans. It can be registered later on
-(using -remote or -proxy, for example).
-
-<p>
-<li> Fixed bug in which xpans was still listening on any interface when
-XPA_METHOD was localhost (instead of just listening on localhost).
-
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Public Release 2.1.0 (22 April 2002)</H2>
-
-<P>
-New features include:
-
-<ul>
-<p>
-<li> Support for proxy access to XPA servers (e.g. ds9) situated
-behind a firewall (useful for NVO-type applications).
-
-<p>
-<li> Improved support for allowing remote machines access rights to the
-XPA access points (useful for NVO-type applications).
-
-<p>
-<li> Ability for XPAAccess() routine and xpaaccess program to contact XPA
- directly.
-
-<p>
-<li> Support for a clipboard access point that allows clients to store ASCII
-state information in an XPA-enabled server.
-
-<p>
-<li> Improved support for Windows platform, as well as new support for Mac OSX.
-</ul>
-
-<H2> Pre-Release 2.1.0e (2 April 2002)</H2>
-<UL>
-
-<P>
-<LI> Removed the environment variable generated by each XPA access
-point (of the form XPA_name=method). The putenv() call was causing ds9
-to crash under both Linux and LinuxPPC during a socket operation. We
-suspect a bug in putenv but cannot prove it and this feature is not
-essential, so ...
-
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Pre-Release 2.1.0e (1 April 2002)</H2>
-<UL>
-
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed an uninitialized variable in xpamb which prevented it from
-working at all on some systems.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Changed xpamb switch from "-add" to "-data" (to store named data).
-
-<P>
-<LI> Changed how xpamb works with xpaget so that xpamb can return data
-from XPA access points as well as from stored data. (Previous versions
-only returned stored data.) Now, you can retrieve stored data
-explicitly using the -info and/or -data switches. For example:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpamb -info foo
-</PRE>
-will return info about the previously stored data named foo. If
-neither switch is present, then the name is assumed to be an XPA access
-point.
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Pre-Release 2.1.0e (25 March 2002)</H2>
-<UL>
-
-<P>
-<LI> Changed symbol for default port from "*" to "$port" to avoid
-a syntactical conflict between class:* and machine:* when processing an
-XPA access point class:name specification. Thus, the default inet
-method now is '$host:$port' instead of '$host:*'.
-
-</UL>

-<LI> Removed timeout check when reading data (in clients using xpaget
-and servers filling the data buffer). We have more and more cases
-where we need to wait a long time to retrieve data (e.g., slow
-networks or receiving data being compressed on the fly).
-
-<P>
-<LI> Moved call to sigaction(SIGCHLD,...) out of XPAOpen(), so that it
-is only executed when needed by XPAGet()/XPASet() routines called from
-within xpans/proxy. But then changed logic to use a double fork() instead
-of sigaction() to prevent zombies (Stevens Adv. Programming p 202).
-
-<P>
-<LI> Each XPA access point now generates an environment variable of the
-form XPA_name=method so that children can communicate with the parent access
-point more easily.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Added version option to Tcl xparec:
-<PRE>
-  if [catch { xparec "" version } version] {
-    puts "pre-2.1.0e"
-  } else {
-    puts [split $version .]
-  }
-</PRE>
-to help differentiate between XPA versions within Tcl code.

-
-<P>

-
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Beta Release 2.1.0b7 (21 December 2001)</H2>
-<UL>
-
-<P>
-<LI> Added -proxy switch to -remote sub-command to allow remote access
-through a firewall, using xpans as a proxy server. The support for proxy
-processing required a change to the client/server protocol. This means
-that new xpa servers will not work with old xpa clients (although new
-xpa clients will work with old xpa servers). For details about proxy
-firewall support, see http://hea-www.harvard.edu/RD/xpa/inet.html.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed Tcl support for XPA under Windows/Cygwin by re-writing
-the code used to add XPA to the Tcl event loop. This fix makes ds9
-support for XPA much more stable under Windows.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Added the shutdown() call to XPA under Cygwin/Windows before
-closing send() sockets. It appears that a Cygwin recv() socket call
-does not always sense when the other end closes the socket using
-close(). This measure must be considered a hack, since the actual
-problem was never resolved.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Added code to protect accept() and select() calls from interrupts.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Extended syntax of the environment variable XPA_NSINET to:
-<PRE>
-  setenv XPA_NSINET host:port[,port[,port]]
-</PRE>
-to allow specification of the XPA access point port for xpans,
-as well as the proxy data port.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Modified xpans log file so that it contains the xpaset commands
-required to reconnect with xpa servers.
-
-<P>
-<LI> xpans now deletes its Unix socket files.

-</UL>
-
-<H2> Beta Release 2.1.0b6 (29 October 2001)</H2>
-<UL>
-
-<P>
-<LI> Implemented a reserve public access point named -clipboard so
-that clients can store ASCII state information on any number of named
-clipboards. Clipboards of the same name created by clients on
-different machines are kept separate.  The syntax for creating a
-clipboard is:
-<PRE>
-  [data] | xpaset [server] -clipboard add|append [clipboard_name]
-  xpaset -p [server] -clipboard delete [clipboard_name]
-  xpaget [server] -clipboard [clipboard_name]
-</PRE>
-Use "add" to create a new clipboard or replace the contents of an existing
-one. Use "append" to append to an existing clipboard.
-
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Beta Release 2.1.0b5 (22 October 2001)</H2>
-<UL>
-
-<P>
-<LI> Use FD_SETSIZE instead of getdtablesize() to determine how many files
-to check during select();
-
-<P>
-<LI> Under Cygwin, the launch() routine now uses the Cygwin spawnvp()
-instead of fork()/exec() where possible (i.e., if no stdfiles are
-being redirected). This is recommended by Cygwin's (skimpy) on-line
-documentation and seems to fix the problems ds9 had when starting xpans
-automatically.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Added error check to select() call in xpans.
-
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Beta Release 2.1.0b4 (24 September 2001)</H2>
-<UL>
-
-<P>
-<LI> The launch() now can return an error code if the execv() system
-call fails (something system() does not do).
-
-<P>
-<LI> INET socket calls between xpa clients and servers now will use
-localhost if they are on the same machine. This protects against
-Linux systems where the hostname is hardwired (wrongly) in a DHCP
-environment.
-
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Beta Release 2.1.0b3 (6 September 2001)</H2>
-<UL>
-
-<P>
-<LI> Modified xpans so that, in the case of a firewall, it tries to
-correct the specified ip:port by matching against the ip found in
-the socket packet at accept() time.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Replaced system() call used to start xpans automatically with
-a special launch() call, which performs execvp() directly without going
-through sh. (launch() works under DOS and has fewer security problems.)
-
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed bug in xpans in which its xpa port was always being set to 14286.
-
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Beta Release 2.1.0b2 (17 August 2001)</H2>
-<UL>
-
-<P>
-<LI>Added support for -remote command, which registers the access
-point in the XPA name server of the specified remote server, and gives
-the remote server access rights to the access point. This is used, for
-example, to give data servers xpa access to ds9 so that data can be
-sent to ds9 as a result of a CGI-based Web query.
-
-<P>
-<LI>Reserved commands (except "-help" and "-version") now can only be
-executed on the machine on which the xpa service is running (not
-through -remote servers).
-
-<P>
-<LI>Fixed bug in xpans in which a bad telnet command could hang the program.
-
-<P>
-<LI>Added -s [security file] to xpans to allow logging of all external
-connections.
-
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Beta Release 2.1.0b1 (6 August 2001)</H2>
-<UL>
-<P>
-<LI> The xpaaccess client program and XPAAccess() client subroutine
-were modified so that an access-type query can directly contact the
-xpa servers matching the requested xpa template, instead of just
-querying the name server for registered access points. This avoid the
-race condition in which an access point is registered but is not yet
-available, perhaps because the server has not yet entered its event
-loop.  Note that the calling sequence of the XPAAccess() routine was
-changed to return all matching access points and their availability
-status (instead of just returning the number of registered access
-points). Because of this, we are calling this a minor release instead
-of a patch.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Added support for XPA_PORT and XPA_PORTFILE environment variables
-to allow specification of the port to be used by the command channel
-(and data channel, if an optional second port is specified) for a given
-access point.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Added -m switch to xpaget, xpaset, xpainfo, xpaaccess to allow
-override of the XPA_METHOD environment variable.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Changed the default name of the ACL file from xpa.acl to acls.xpa.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed bug in which it was not possible to send a "set ACL"
-command to an XPA server which did not have a receive callback (i.e.,
-did not allow xpaset). The xpans program is one such server. It now is
-possible to set the ACL on xpans.
-
-<P>
-<LI> We have discovered that Tcl support for datachan and cmdchan is
-broken under Windows due to an unexplained incompatibility between
-Cygwin sockets and Win32 sockets. We therefore have removed datachan
-and cmdchan from the Windows/Tcl support until further notice.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Extended the behavior of the XPA_DEFACL environment variable so that
-it can support more than one acl, using a list of semi-colon delimited
-controls such as: setenv XPA_DEFACL '*:* $host +; *:foo1 otherhost +'.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed bug in which the class:name specifier "*:*" was erroneously
-trying to access the xpans name server, instead of accessing all
-access points.
-
-<P>
-<LI> Support TMPDIR and TMP environment variables as well as XPA_TMPDIR.
-
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.0.5 (10 November 2000)</H2>
-<UL>
-<P>
-<LI> Added support for Tcl on Windows where there is no select()-based
-event loop (i.e., where there is no Tcl_CreateFileHandler call in Tcl)
-<P>
-<LI> Minor fixes in Makefile for installing on Windows
-<P>

-<P>
-<LI> Ported to SGI C compiler, which caught lots of unused variables, etc.
-<P>
-<LI> Ported to Cygwin/Windows, which required that we change socket read()
-and write() calls to recv() and send() respectively. Also had to ensure that
-we only did socket I/O on sockets (no fileio).
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.0.3 (15 June 2000) </H2>
-<UL> 
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed the client XPASet() and XPASetFd() calls to handle the specified
-max number of connections (they were ignoring this argument, leading to
-memory overwrites).
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed Makefile.in so that CFLAGS and LDFLAGS are not hard-wired values.
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed word.h to load malloc.h and stdlib.h only if they exist.
-<P>
-<LI> Documentation fixes to programs.html (in xpaaccess) and client.html
-(XPANSLookup).
-<P>
-<LI> Added explicit typecast to strlen() argument to MAX #define in
-XPAClientStart (strlen() is unsigned in Linux, which can break MAX).
-<P>
-<LI> Removed bogus Imakefile from directory.
-<P>
-<LI> Changed directory name to include patch level (i.e., xpa-2.0.3).
-</UL>
-
-<H2> Patch Release 2.0.2 (9 September 1999)</H2>
-<UL> 
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed server mode (-s) in the xpaset program by properly cleaning up

-<UL> 
-<P>
-<LI> Fixed the Tcl binding code (tcl.c) for 64-bit machines (Dec Alpha)
-(erroneously used %x instead of %p when converting pointers to ASCII).

-<P>
-This document describes changes that will affect users who migrate
-from XPA 1.0 to XPA 2.0.
-
-<!-- =section xpachanges DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-There have been a few changes that affect users who upgrade XPA
-from version 1.0 to version 2.0.  These changes are detailed below.
-<UL>
-<P>
-<LI>XPA commands no longer have a resolver routine (this is open to
-negotiations, but we decided the idea was dumb).  For the SAOtng
-program, this means that you must explicitly specify the access
-point, i.e.,:
-<PRE>
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset SAOtng fits
-</PRE>
-
-<P>
-instead of:
-<PRE>
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset SAOtng
-</PRE>
-<P>
-<LI>By default, xpaset, xpaget, etc. now wait for the server callback to
-complete; i.e., the old -W is implied (and the switch is ignored).
-This allows support for better error handling.  If you want xpaset, etc.
-to return before the callback is complete, use -n switch:
-<PRE>
-  echo "file foo.fits" | xpaset -n SAOtng
-</PRE>
-<P>
-<LI>The old -w switch in xpaset and xpaget is no longer necessary (and is
-ignored), since you can have more than one process communicating with
-an xpa access point at one time.
-
-<P>
-<LI>The new -p switch on xpaset means you need not read from stdout:
-<PRE>              
-  xpaset -p SAOtng colormap I8
-</PRE>
-<P>
-will send the paramlist to the SAOtng callback without reading from stdin.

-<H2>Introduction</H2>
-
-To use the XPA application programming interface, a software developer
-generally will include the xpa.h definitions file:
-<PRE>
-  #include &lt;xpa.h&gt;
-</PRE>
-in the software module that defines or accesses an XPA access point and
-then will link against the libxpa.a library:
-<PRE>
-  gcc -o foo foo.c libxpa.a
-</PRE>
-XPA has been compiled using both C and C++ compilers.
-<P>
-Client communication with XPA public access points generally is
-accomplished using XPAGet() or XPASet() within a program (or xpaget
-and xpaset at the command line).  Both routines require specification
-of the name of the access point.  If a <A HREF="./template.html">template</A>
-is used to specify the access point name (e.g., "ds9*"), then
-communication will take place with all servers matching that template.

-<H2><A NAME="xpaget">XPAGet: retrieve data from one or more XPA servers</A></H2>
-
-<!-- =section xpaget SYNOPSIS -->
-<B>
-<PRE>
-  #include &lt;xpa.h&gt;
-
-  int XPAGet(XPA xpa,
-             char *template, char *paramlist, char *mode,
-             char **bufs, size_t *lens, char **names, char **messages,
-	     int n);

-</B>
-
-<!-- =section xpaget DESCRIPTION -->
-<P>
-Retrieve data from one or more XPA servers whose class:name identifier
-matches the specified template.
-
-<P>
-A 
-<A HREF="./template.html">template</A>
-of the form "class1:name1" is sent to the
-XPA name server, which returns a list of at most n matching XPA
-servers.  A connection is established with each of these servers and
-the paramlist string is passed to the server as the data transfer
-request is initiated. If an XPA struct is passed to the call, then the
-persistent connections are updated as described above. Otherwise,
-temporary connections are made to the servers (which will be closed
-when the call completes).
-
-<P>
-The XPAGet() routine then retrieves data from at most n XPA servers,
-places these data into n allocated buffers and places the buffer
-pointers in the bufs array. The length of each buffer is stored in the
-lens array. A string containing the class:name and ip:port is stored
-in the name array.  If a given server returned an error or the server
-callback sends a message back to the client, then the message will be
-stored in the associated element of the messages array.  NB: if
-specified, the name and messages arrays must be of size n or greater.
-
-<p>
-The returned message string will be of the form:
-<PRE>
-  XPA$ERROR error-message (class:name ip:port)
-</PRE>
-or
-<PRE>
-  XPA$MESSAGE message (class:name ip:port)
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Note that when there is an error stored in an messages entry, the
-corresponding bufs and lens entry may or may not be NULL and 0
-(respectively), depending on the particularities of the server.
-
-<P>
-The return value will contain the actual number of servers that were
-processed.  This value thus will hold the number of valid entries in
-the bufs, lens, names, and messages arrays, and can be used to loop
-through these arrays.  In names and/or messages is NULL, no information is
-passed back in that array.
-
-<P>
-The bufs, names, and messages arrays should be freed upon completion (if
-they are not NULL);
-
-<P>
-The mode string is of the form: "key1=value1,key2=value2,..."
-The following keywords are recognized:
-<PRE>
-  key   	value		default		explanation
-  ------	--------	--------	-----------
-  ack		true/false	true		if false, don't wait for ack from server (after callback completes)
-  doxpa		true/false	true		client processes xpa requests
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The ack keyword is not very useful, since the server completes the callback
-in order to return the data anyway.  It is here for completion (and perhaps
-for future usefulness).
-
-<p>
-Normally, an XPA client will process incoming XPA server requests
-while awaiting the completion of the client request.  Setting this
-variable to "false" will prevent XPA server requests from being
-processed by the client.
-					   
-<P>
-<B>Example:</B>
-<PRE>
-  #include &lt;xpa.h&gt;
-
-  #define NXPA 10
-  int  i, got;
-  size_t  lens[NXPA];
-  char *bufs[NXPA];
-  char *names[NXPA];
-  char *messages[NXPA];
-  got = XPAGet(NULL, "ds9", "file", NULL, bufs, lens, names, messages,
-  NXPA);
-  for(i=0; i&lt;got; i++){
-    if( messages[i] == NULL ){
-      /* process buf contents */
-      ProcessImage(bufs[i], ...);
-      free(bufs[i]);
-    }
-    else{
-      /* error processing */
-      fprintf(stderr, "ERROR: %s (%s)\n", messages[i], names[i]);

-XPAOpen() allocates a persistent XPA struct that can be used with

-XPASetFd(). Persistence means that a connection to an XPA server is
-not closed when one of the above calls is completed but will be

-it takes to connect to a server, which could be significant with slow
-connections or if there will be a large number of exchanges with a

-An XPA struct is returned if XPAOpen() was successful; otherwise NULL

-<!-- =section xpanslookup DESCRIPTION -->
-<P>
-XPA routines act on a class:name identifier in such a way
-that all access points that match the identifier are processed.  It is
-sometimes desirable to choose specific access points from the
-candidates that match the
-<A HREF="./template.html">template</A>.  In order to do this, the
-XPANSLookup routine can be called to return a list of matches, so that
-specific class:name instances can then be fed to XPAGet(), XPASet(), etc.
-
-<P> The first argument is an optional XPA struct. If non-NULL, the
-existing name server connection associated with the specified xpa is
-used to query the xpans name server for matching templates. Otherwise,
-a new (temporary) connection is established with the name server.
-
-<P>
-The second argument to XPANSLookup is the class:name 
-<A HREF="./template.html">template</A>

-  g		xpaget calls can be made on this access point
-  s		xpaset calls can be made on this access point
-  i		xpainfo calls can be made on this access point
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The call typically specifies only one of these at a time.
-
-<P>
-The final arguments are pointers to arrays that will be filled
-in and returned by the name server. The name server will allocate and
-return arrays filled with the classes, names, and methods of all XPA
-access points that match the <A HREF="./template.html">template</A>
-and have the specified type. Also returned are info strings, which
-generally are used internally by the client routines. These can be
-ignored (but the strings must be freed).  The function returns the
-number of matches. The returned value can be used to loop through the
-matches:
-
-<B>Example:</B>
-<PRE>
-  #include &lt;xpa.h&gt;

-Rather, it is essential to check the messages array for error
-messages.  Any string in the messages array is an error message and
-indicated that the associated access point is not available.

-For example, assume that a server registers a number of access points
-but delays entering its event loop. If a call to XPAAccess() is made
-before the event loop is entered, the call will timeout (after waiting
-for the long timeout period) and return an error of the form:
-<PRE>
-  XPA$ERROR: timeout waiting for server authentication (XPA:xpa1)

-The error means that the XPA access point has been registered but is
-not yet available (because events are not being processed). When the
-server finally enters its event loop, subsequent calls to XPAAccess()
-will return successfully.
-
-<P>
-NB: This routine only works with XPA servers built with XPA 2.1.x and later.
-Servers with older versions of XPA will return the error message:
-
-  XPA$ERROR invalid xpa command in initialization string
-
-If you get this error message, then the old server actually is ready

-<H2>Summary</H2>
-<P>
-This document describes tips for converting from xpa 1.0 (Xt-based
-xpa) to xpa 2.0 (socket-based xpa).
-
-<!-- =section xpaconvert DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-The following are tips for converting from xpa 1.0 (Xt-based xpa) to
-xpa 2.0 (socket-based xpa). The changes are straight-forward and
-almost can be done automatically (we used editor macros for most of
-the conversion).
-<UL>
-<P>
-<LI>The existence of the cpp XPA_VERSION directive to distinguish between 1.0
-(where it is not defined) and 2.0 (where it is defined).
-
-<P>
-<LI>Remove the first widget argument from all send and receive server
-callbacks.  Also change first 2 arguments from XtPointer to void
-*. For example:
-<PRE>
-#ifdef XPA_VERSION
-static void XPAReceiveFile(client_data, call_data, paramlist, buf, len)
-     void *client_data;
-     void *call_data;
-     char *paramlist;
-     char *buf;
-     int len;
-#else
-static void XPAReceiveFile(w, client_data, call_data, paramlist, buf, len)
-     Widget w;
-     XtPointer client_data;
-     XtPointer call_data;
-     char *paramlist;
-     char *buf;
-     int len;
-#endif
-</PRE>
-<P>
-<LI>Server callbacks should be declared as returning int instead
-of void. They now should return 0 for no errors, -1 for error.
-
-<P>
-<LI> The mode flags have changed when defining XPA server callbacks.
-The old <EM>S</EM> flag (save buffer) is replaced by <EM>freebuf=false</EM>.
-The old <EM>E</EM> flag (empty buffer is OK) is no longer used (it
-was an artifact of the X implementation).
-
-<P>
-<LI>Change NewXPACommand() to XPAcmdNew(), with the new calling sequence:
-<PRE>
-  xpa = NewXPACommand(toplevel, NULL, prefix, NULL);
-</PRE>
-is changed to:
-<PRE>
-  xpa = XPACmdNew(xclass, name);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-<LI>Change the AddXPACommand() subroutine name to XPACmdAdd (with the same
-calling sequence):
-<PRE>
-  AddXPACommand(xpa, "file",
-    "\tdisplay a new file\n\t\t  requires: filename",
-    NULL, NULL, NULL, XPAReceiveFile, text, NULL);
-</PRE>
-is changed to:
-<PRE>
-  XPACmdAdd(xpa, "file",
-    "\tdisplay a new file\n\t\t  requires: filename",
-    NULL, NULL, NULL, XPAReceiveFile, text, NULL);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-<LI>The XPAXtAppInput() routine should be called just before XtAppMainLoop()
-to add xpa fds to the Xt event loop:
-<PRE>
-  /* add the xpas to the Xt loop */
-  XPAXtAddInput(app, NULL);
-
-  /* process events */
-  XtAppMainLoop(app);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-<LI>Change NewXPA() to XPANew() and call XPAXtAddInput() if the XtAppMainLoop
-routine already has been entered:
-<PRE>
-  xpa = NewXPA(saotng->xim->toplevel, prefix, xparoot,
-               "FITS data or image filename\n\t\t  options: file type",
-               XPASendData, new, NULL,
-               XPAReceiveData, new, "SE");
-</PRE>
-is changed to:
-<PRE>
-  sprintf(tbuf, "%s.%s", prefix, xparoot);
-  xpa = XPANew("SAOTNG", tbuf,
-               "FITS data or image filename\n\t\t  options: file type",
-               XPASendData, new, NULL,
-               XPAReceiveData, new, "SE");
-  XPAXtAddInput(XtWidgetToApplicationContext(saotng->xim->toplevel), xpa);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-<LI>Change XPAInternalReceiveCommand() to XPACmdInternalReceive()
-remove first argument in the calling sequence):
-<PRE>
-  XPAInternalReceiveCommand(im->saotng->xim->toplevel,
-			    im->saotng, im->saotng->commands,
-			    "zoom reset", NULL, 0);
-</PRE>
-is changed to:
-<PRE>
-  XPACmdInternalReceive(im->saotng, im->saotng->commands,
-			"zoom reset", NULL, 0);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-<LI>Change DestroyXPA to XPAFree:
-<PRE>
-  DestroyXPA(im->dataxpa);
-</PRE>
-is changed to:
-<PRE>
-  XPAFree(im->dataxpa);
-</PRE>
-</UL>

-
-<!-- =section xpaenv SYNOPSIS -->
-<H2>Summary</H2>
-Describes the environment variables which can be used to tailor the overall
-XPA environment.
-
-<!-- =section xpaenv DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-The following environment variables are supported by XPA:
-<DL>
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_ACL</B>
-<DD> If <EM>XPA_ACL</EM> is <EM>true</EM>, then 
-host-based <A HREF="./acl.html">XPA Access Control</A>
-is turned on and only specified machines can access specified access
-points.  If <EM>false</EM>, then access control is turned off and any
-machine can access point. The default is turn turn access control on.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_ACLFILE</B>
-<DD> If
-<A HREF="./acl.html">XPA Access Control</A>
-is turned on, this variable specifies the name of the file containing
-access control information for all access points started by this user.
-The default file name is: <EM>$HOME/acls.xpa</EM>.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_CONNECT_TIMEOUT</B>
-<DD> When an XPA server first starts up, it immediately tries to
-connect to the XPA name server program (xpans) on the host specified by
-the <em>XPA_NSINET</em> variable. (If this connection fails on the
-local host, and if xpans can be found in the path, then the name
-server is started automatically.)  Unfortunately, a mis-configured
-network can cause this connect attempt to hang for many seconds while
-the connect() system call times out. Therefore, an alarm is started
-to interrupt the connect() call and prevent a long hang.  The initial
-value of the alarm timeout is 10 seconds, but can be changed by setting
-this environment variable. If you want to disable the alarm and allow
-the initial connect() to time out, set the value of this variable to
-0. Normally, users would not change this variable at all.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_CLIENT_DOXPA</B>
-<DD> Normally, an XPA client (xpaget, xpaset, etc.) will process incoming
-XPA server requests while awaiting the completion of the client request.
-Setting this variable to "false" will prevent XPA server requests from
-being processed by the client.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_DEFACL</B>
-<DD> If
-<A HREF="./acl.html">XPA Access Control</A>
-is turned on, this variable specifies the default access control
-condition for all access points, if the <EM>XPA_ACLFILE</EM> file does
-not exist.  The default acl is: <EM>$host:* $host +</EM>, meaning that
-all processes on the host machine have full access to all access points.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_HOST</B>
-<DD>
-For the INET socket method, XPA utilizes the canonical hostname (as
-returned by the gethostname() routine) to construct the IP part of the
-method id. Under some circumstances, this might not be a correct choice
-of name and IP. For example, if an XPA server is started on a machine
-running VPN, you might want to use the VPN name and IP instead of the
-canonical host name, so that other machines in the VPN network can
-access the server. In this case, you can set the XPA_HOST to be
-the VPN name (if resolvable) or, more easily, the VPN IP.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_IOCALLSXPA</B>
-<DD> 
-Setting this variable causes all XPA socket IO calls to process
-outstanding XPA requests whenever the primary socket is not ready for
-IO. This means that a server making a client call will (recursively)
-process incoming server requests while waiting for client completion.
-This inter-IO XPA processing avoids a rare
-<A HREF="./server.html#race">XPA Race Condition</A>: two or more
-XPA servers sending messages to one another using an XPA client
-routine such as XPASet() can deadlock while each waits for the other
-server to respond. This can happen, for example, if the servers call
-XPAPoll() with a time limit, and send messages in between the polling call.
-
-<P>
-By default, this option is turned off, because we judge that the added
-code complication and overhead involved will not be justified by the
-amount of its use.  Moreover, processing XPA requests within socket IO
-can lead to non-intuitive results, since incoming server requests will
-not necessarily be processed to completion in the order in which they
-are received.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_LOGNAME</B>
-<DD>
-XPA preferentially uses the de facto standard environment variable
-LOGNAME to determine the username when registering an access point in
-the name server. If this environment variable has been used for
-something other than the actual user name (such as a log file name),
-unexpected results can ensue. In such cases, use the XPA_LOGNAME
-variable to set the user name. (If neither exists, then getpwuid(geteuid())
-is used as a last resort).
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_LONG_TIMEOUT</B>
-<DD> XPA is designed to allow data to be sent from one process to
-another over a long period of time (i.e., a program that generates
-image data sends that data to an image display, but slowly) but it
-also seeks to prevent hangs. This is done by supporting 2 timeout
-periods: a <EM>short</EM> timeout for protocol communication
-and a <EM>long</EM> for data communication.
-<P>
-The <EM>XPA_LONG_TIMEOUT</EM> variable controls the <EM>long</EM>
-timeout and is used to prevent hangs in cases where communication
-between the client and server that is <EM>not</EM> controlled by the
-XPA interface itself. Transfer of data between client and server, or a
-client's wait for a status message after completion of the server
-callback, are two examples of this sort of communication. By default,
-the <EM>long</EM> timeout is set to 180 seconds.
-Setting the value to -1 will disable <EM>long</EM> timeouts and allow
-an infinite amount of time.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_MAXHOSTS</B>
-<DD> The maximum number of access points that the programs 
-<EM>xpaset</EM>, <EM>xpaget</EM>, and <EM>xpainfo</EM> will
-communicate with at one time. The default is 64, meaning, for
-example, that the <EM>xpaset</EM> program will not send a message
-to more than 100 access points at one time and <EM>xpaget</EM> will
-not retrieve from more than 100 access points at one time.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_METHOD</B>
-<DD>
-Determines the socket connection method used by this session of XPA.
-The choices are: <EM>inet</EM> (to use INET or Internet-based
-sockets), <EM>localhost</EM> (to use the machines localhost inet
-socket), or <EM>local (unix)</EM> (to use UNIX sockets). The default
-is <EM>INET</EM>.  Using the <EM>inet</EM> method will allow access
-from other machines (subject to access controls) but using
-<EM>localhost</EM> or <EM>local</EM> will not. Localhost is most useful
-for private access and when the machine in question is not connected
-to the Internet. The unix method also can be used for private access
-and non-Internet connections (Unix platforms only).
-<P>
-Once defined, the first registration of an XPA access point will
-ensure that an instance of the
-<A HREF="./xpans.html">XPA Name Server (xpans)</A>
-is running that handles that connection method. All new access points
-will use the new connection method but existing access points will use
-the original method.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_NSINET</B>
-<DD> For the <EM>inet</EM> method of socket connection, this variable
-specifies the host and port on which the 
-<A HREF="./xpans.html">XPA Name Server (xpans)</A>
-is listens for new access points. The default is <EM>$host:$port</EM>,
-meaning that the default XPA port (14285) on the current machine
-(as returned by gethostname()) is used. If several machines were all
-accessing the same XPA access points, you would use this variable to
-specify that they all use the same name server to find out about these
-access points.  For example, a value of <EM>myhost:$port</EM> would
-mean that the xpans name server is running on myhost and uses the
-default port 12345.  All machines would then get the XPA access points
-registered with that name server, subject to access controls.
-<P>
-The port used by xpans to register its XPA access point normally is
-taken to be one greater than the port on which it receives new access
-points from XPA servers. You can specify a specific access point port
-using the syntax machine:port1,port2, i.e., the access point port is
-specified after the comma.  For example, $host:12345,23456 will listen
-for new access ports on 12345 and will accept XPA commands on 23456.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_NSREGISTER</B>
-<DD>
-This boolean variable specifies whether a server registers its XPA
-access point with the specified xpans name server. The default is
-<em>true</em>.  If set to <em>false</em>, the access point still is
-set up but it is not registered with xpans and therefore cannot be
-accessed by name. (It can be accessed by method, if the latter is
-known.) Note that an access point can be registered later on (using
--remote or -proxy, for example). This variable mainly is useful in
-cases where the Internet configuration is broken (so that registration
-causes a DNS hang) but you still wish to and can use the server with a
-remote xpans (e.g., ds9's Virtual Observatory capability).
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_NSUNIX</B>
-<DD> For the <EM>local</EM> method of socket connection, this variable
-specifies the name of the Unix file that will be used to access the
-<A HREF="./xpans.html">XPA Name Server (xpans)</A>. The default is
-<EM>xpans_unix</EM>. This variable is not usually needed. Note that
-is the <EM>local</EM> socket method is used, then remote machines will
-not be able to access the xpans name server or the registered XPA access
-points.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_NSUSERS</B>
-<DD>
-This variable specifies whether other users' access points will be
-returned by the
-<A HREF="./xpans.html">XPA Name Server (xpans)</A> for use by
-<EM>xpaget</EM>, <EM>xpaset</EM>, etc.
-Generally speaking, it is sufficient to run one xpans name server per
-machine and register the access points for all users with that xpans.
-This means, for example, that if you request information from
-ds9 by running:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget ds9 colormap
-</PRE>
-you might get information from your own ds9 as well as
-from another user running ds9 on the same machine.  The
-<EM>XPA_NSUSERS</EM> variable controls whether you want such access 
-to the access points of other users.
-By default, only your own access points are returned, so
-that, in the example above, you would only get the colormap information
-from the ds9 you registered. If, however, you had set the value of the
-<EM>XPA_NSUSERS</EM> variable to <EM>eric,fred</EM>, then you would be
-able to communicate with both eric and fred's access points. Note that
-this variable can be overridden using the <EM>-u</EM> switch on the
-<EM>xpaget</EM>, <EM>xpaset</EM>, and <EM>xpainfo</EM> programs.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_PORT</B>
-<DD> 
-A semi-colon delimited list of user specified ports to use for specific
-XPA access points. The format is each specification is:
-<PRE>
-class:template port1[ port2]
-</PRE>
-where <B>port1</B> is the main (command) port for the access point and
-<B>port2</B> is the (secondary) data port. If port2 is not specified,
-it defaults to a value of 0 (meaning the system assigns the port).
-
-<P>
-Specification of specific ports is useful, for example, when a machine
-outside a firewall needs to communicate with a machine inside a
-firewall. In such a case, the firewall should be configured to allow
-socket connections to both the command and data port from the outside
-machine, and the inside XPA program should be started up with the
-outside machine in its ACL list. Then, when the inside program is
-started with specified ports, outside XPA programs can use
-"machine:port" to contact the inside access points, instead of the
-access point names. That is, the machine outside the firewall does not
-need access to the XPA name server:
-<PRE>
-export XPA_PORT="DS9:ds9 12345 12346"   # on machine "inside"
-cat foo.fits | xpaset inside:12345 fits # on machine "outside"
-</PRE>
-Note that 2 ports are required for full XPA communication and
-therefore 2 ports should be specified to go through a firewall.  The
-second port assignment is not important if you simply are assigning
-the command port in order to communicate commands with a known
-port (e.g., to bypass the xpans name server). If only one (command)
-port is specified, the system will negotiate a random data port and
-everything will work properly.
-
-<P>
-This support is somewhat experimental. If you run into problems, please
-let us know.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_PORTFILE</B>
-<DD> 
-A list of user-specified port to use for specific xpa access points.
-The format of the file is:
-<PRE>
-class:template port1 [port2]
-</PRE>
-where <B>port1</B> is the main port for the access point and
-<B>port2</B> is the data port. If port2 is not specified, it defaults
-to a value of 0 (meaning the system assigns the port).  See
-<B>XPA_PORT</B> above for an explanation of user-specified ports.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_SHORT_TIMEOUT</B>
-<DD> XPA is designed to allow data to be sent from one process to
-another over a long period of time (i.e., a program that generates
-image data sends that data to an image display, but slowly) but it
-also seeks to prevent hangs. This is done by supporting 2 timeout
-periods: a <EM>short</EM> timeout for protocol communication
-and a <EM>long</EM> for data communication.
-<P>
-The <EM>XPA_SHORT_TIMEOUT</EM> variable
-controls the <EM>short</EM> timeout and is used to prevent hangs
-in cases where the XPA protocol requires internal communication between
-the client and server that is controlled by the XPA interface
-itself. Authentication is an example of this sort of communication,
-as is the establishment of a data channel between the two processes.
-The default value for the <EM>short</EM> is 30 seconds (which is
-a pretty long time, actually). Setting the value to -1 will disable
-<EM>short</EM> timeouts and allow an infinite amount of time.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_SIGUSR1</B>
-<DD> If the value of this variable is <EM>true</EM>, then XPA will
-catch SIGUSR1 signals when performing an I/O operation in order to
-curtail that operation. This facility allows users to send a SIGUSR1
-signal to an XPA server if a client is hanging up the server by
-sending or receiving data too slowly (timeouts also can be used -- see
-above). When enabled in this way, the SIGUSR1 signal is ignored at all other
-times, so that its safe to send the signal at any time.  If the
-variable is set to <EM>false</EM>, then SIGUSR1 is not used at
-all. Turning off SIGUSR1 would be desired in cases there the program
-uses SIGUSR1 for some other reason and does not want XPA interfering.
-The default is to use the signal.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_TIMESTAMP_ERRORS</B>
-<DD> If <EM>XPA_TIMESTAMP_ERRORS</EM> is <EM>true</EM>, then error
-messages will include a date/time string.  This can be useful when
-XPA errors are being saved in an error log (e.g. Web/CGI use). The
-default is false.
-</DL>
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_TMPDIR</B>
-<DD> This variable specifies the directory into which XPA logs, Unix
-socket files (when <EM>XPA_METHOD</EM> is <EM>local</EM>), etc. are
-stored. The default is <EM>/tmp/.xpa</EM>.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_VERBOSITY</B>
-<DD> Specify the verbosity level of error messages. If the value is
-set to <EM>0</EM>, <EM>false</EM>, or <EM>off</EM>, then no error
-messages are printed to stderr.  If the value is <EM>1</EM>, then
-important XPA error messages will be output.  If the value is
-set to <EM>2</EM>, XPA warnings about out-of-sync messages will also
-be output.  These latter almost always can be ignored.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>XPA_VERSIONCHECK</B>
-<DD> Specify whether a new access point should check its major and minor XPA
-version number against the version used by the xpans name server at
-registration time. The default is <EM>true</EM>. When checking is
-performed, a warning is issued if the server major version is found to
-be greater than the xpans version. Note that the check is performed
-both by the XPA server and by the xpans process and warnings will be
-issued by each.  Also, instead of the values of <EM>true</EM> or
-<em>false</em>, you can give this variable an integer value n. In this
-case, each version checking process (i.e., the XPA-enabled server or
-xpans) will print out a maximum of n warning messages (after which
-version warnings are silently swallowed).
-<P>
-In general, it is a bad idea to run an XPA-enabled server program
-using a version of XPA newer than the basic xpaset, xpaget, xpaaccess,
-xpans programs. This sort of mismatch usually will not work due to
-protocol changes.

-<H2>Summary</H2>
-<P>
-The XPA source code directory contains two test programs,
-<EM>stest.c</EM>, and <EM>ctest.c</EM> that can serve as
-examples for writing XPA servers and clients, respectively.
-They also can be used to test various features of XPA.
-
-<!-- =section xpacode DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-To build the XPA test programs, execute:
-<PRE>
-   make All
-</PRE>
-in the XPA source directory to generate the <EM>stest</EM> and
-<EM>ctest</EM> programs.  (NB: this should work on all platforms,
-although we have had problems with unresolved externals on one
-Sun/Solaris machine, for reasons still unknown.)
-<P>
-The stest program can be executed with no arguments to start
-an XPA server that contains the access points: xpa, xpa1,
-c_xpa (containing sub-commands cmd1 and cmd2), and i_xpa.
-You then can use xpaset and xpaget to interact with these access points:
-<PRE>
-  cat xpa.c | xpaset xpa      # send to xpa
-  cat xpa.c | xpaset "xpa*"   # send to xpa and xpa1
-  xpaget xpa                  # receive from xpa
-  xpaget xpa*                 # receive from xpa and xpa1
-</PRE>
-etc. You also can use ctest to do the same thing, or to iterate:
-<PRE>

-This document is the Table of Contents for XPA.
-
-<!-- =section xpa DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-The XPA messaging system provides seamless communication between many
-kinds of Unix programs, including X programs and Tcl/Tk programs.  It
-also provides an easy way for users to communicate with XPA-enabled
-programs by executing XPA client commands in the shell or by utilizing
-such commands in scripts.  Because XPA works both at the programming
-level and the shell level, it is a powerful tool for unifying any
-analysis environment: users and programmers have great flexibility in
-choosing the best level or levels at which to access XPA services, and
-client access can be extended or modified easily at any time.
-
-<P>
-A program becomes an XPA-enabled server by defining named points of
-public access through which data and commands can be exchanged with
-other client programs (and users).  Using standard TCP sockets as a
-transport mechanism, XPA supports both single-point and broadcast
-messaging to and from these servers.  It supports direct communication
-between clients and servers, or indirect communication via an
-intermediate message bus emulation program. Host-based access control
-is implemented, as is as the ability to communicate with XPA servers
-across a network.
-
-<P>
-XPA implements a layered interface that is designed to be useful both
-to software developers and to users.  The interface consists of a
-library of XPA client and server routines for use in C/C++ programs and
-a suite of high-level user programs built on top of these libraries.
-Using the XPA library, access points can be added to Tcl/Tk programs,
-Xt programs, or to Unix programs that use the XPA event loop or any
-event loop based on select().  Client access subroutines can be added
-to any Tcl/Tk, Xt, or Unix program. Client access also is supported at
-the command line via a suite of high-level programs.

-# Script to generate a pod file from an html source (the same one as for text files too)
-# and later this pod file it passed through pod2man
-#
-# Use:
-#  html2man [ <man-dir> [<version-dir>] ] <file.html
-#
-# <Man-dir> is the directory where the man pages will be created
-# (current directory by default). If a file name is given instead of
-# directory then the directory of that file is used.
-# <Version-dir> is the directory containing the ttf2pt1 files version.h
-# and CHANGES.html which are used to generate the release name and date
-# for the man page (by default looks in current directory and then in up to
-# 5 ancestor directories).
-# If the version files can not be found then the release defaults to
-# "current" and the date defaults to today.
-#
-# Special formatting in the html file is:
-# All controls are hidden within HTML comments that must occupy a whole separate line
-# Such a line looks like:
-# <!-- =<html2man_directive> <arguments> -->
-# <!-- ==<pod_directive> <arguments> -->
-# Any sort of directive must be followed by a space. The pod directives are
-# automatically surrounded by empty lines in the output file.
-# The html2man directives are:
-#
-# <!-- =defdoc <docid> <file> <section> -->
-# Define a man page. Multiple man pages can be defined in the same HTML
-# file. <Docid> is a short name by which this man page will be referred in the
-# other directives. <File> is the name of the man page, and <section> is the
-# section of the manual (do not confuse with sections within a man page).
-#
-# <!-- =section <docid> <page_section_name> -->
-# All the text following this directive is copied (with translation)
-# into the specified section of the specified man page. The sections
-# may appear in arbitrary order, they will be rearranged to the standard
-# order before output. Only standard section names are permitted (see @stdsect
-# below). The pod directives which occur outside of man sections are ignored,
-# just like the common text. The translation of HTML tags is:
-#
-# <br> - to paragraph break
-# <b> - to B<>
-# <i> - to I<>
-# <tt> - to C<>
-# <a href> - to F<>
-# <ul>, <li>, </ul> - to =over 2, =item *, =back
-# &nbsp;, &amp;, &lt;, &gt - to their symbols, appropriately encoded
-#
-# The rest of HTML tags is removed
-#
-# If the same section is started more than once, the text from the
-# second appearance will be added to the first, etc.
-#
-# <!-- =stop -->
-# Stop copying text to the man page.
-#
-# <!-- =cont -->
-# Continue copying text to the man page, same section as before.
-#
-# <!-- =text <text> -->
-# Insert this <text> into the man page (works only when copying is enabled).

-<H2><A NAME="xpainet">XPAInet: XPA Communication Between Hosts</A></H2>
-
-<!-- =section xpainet SYNOPSIS -->
-<H2>Summary</H2>
-XPA uses standard inet sockets to support communication between two or
-more host computers.
-
-<!-- =section xpainet DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-When the <A HREF="./method.html">Communication Method</A> is set to
-<B>inet</B> (as it is by default), XPA can be used to communicate
-between different computers on the Internet.  INET sockets utilize the
-IP address of the given machine and a (usually random) port number to
-communicate between processes on the same machine or between different
-machines on the Internet.  These standard Internet sockets are also
-used by programs such as Netscape, ftp. etc.
-
-<P>
-XPA supports a host-based <A HREF="./acl.html">Access Control</A> mechanism
-to prevent unauthorized access of XPA access points by other computers
-on the Net.  By default, only the machine on which the XPA server is
-running can access XPA services. Therefore, setting up communication
-between a local XPA server machine and a remote client machine
-requires a two-part registration process:
-
-<UL>
-<LI> the XPA service on the local machine must be made known to the 
-remote machine
-<LI> the remote machine must be given permission to access the local
-XPA service
-</UL>
-
-Three methods by which this remote registration can be accomplished
-are described below.
-
-<H2>Manual Registration</H2>
-
-The first method is the most basic and does not require the remote
-client to have xpans running.  To use it, the local server simply
-gives a remote client machine access to one or more XPA access points
-using xpaset and the <B>-acl</B> sub-command. For example,
-consider the XPA test program "stest" running on a local machine.  By
-default the access control for the access point named "xpa" is
-restricted to that machine:
-<PRE>
-  [sh]$ xpaget xpa -acl
-  *:* 123.456.78.910 gisa
-  *:* localhost gisa
-</PRE>
-Using xpaset and the <B>-acl</B> sub-command, a remote client
-machine can be given permission to perform xpaget, xpaset, xpaaccess,
-or xpainfo operations.  For example, to allow the xpaget operation, the
-following command can be issued on the local machine:
-<PRE>
-  [sh]$ xpaset -p xpa -acl "remote_machine g"
-</PRE>
-This results in the following access permissions on the local machine:
-<PRE>
-  [sh]$ xpaget xpa -acl
-  XPA:xpa 234.567.89.012 g
-  *:* 123.456.78.910 gisa
-  *:* localhost gisa
-</PRE>
-
-The remote client can now use the local server's xpans name server to
-establish communication with the local XPA service. This can be done
-on a call-by-call basis using the <B>-i</B> switch on xpaset, xpaget, etc:
-<PRE>
-  [sh]$ xpaget -i "local_machine:12345" xpa
-  class: XPA
-  name: xpa
-  method: 88877766:2778
-  sendian: little
-  cendian: big
-</PRE>
-Alternatively, the XPA_NSINET variable on the remote machine can be
-set to point directly to xpans on the local machine, removing
-the need to override this value each time an XPA program is run:
-<PRE>
-  [csh]$ setenv XPA_NSINET 'karapet:$port'
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpa
-  class: XPA
-  name: xpa
-  method: 88877766:2778
-  sendian: little
-  cendian: big
-</PRE>
-Here, '$port' means to use the default XPA name service port (14285).
-not a port environment variable.
-
-<p>
-Access permission for remote client machines can be stored in a file
-on the local machine pointed to by the <B>XPA_ACLFILE</B> environment
-variable or using the <B>XPA_DEFACL</B> environment variable. See <A
-HREF="./acl.html">XPA Access Control</A> for more information.
-
-<H2>Remote Registration</H2>
-
-If xpans is running on the remote client machine, then a local xpaset
-command can be used with the <B>-remote</B> sub-command to
-register the local XPA service in the remote name service, while at
-the same time giving the remote machine permission to access the local
-service.  For example, assume again that "stest" is running on the
-local machine and that xpans is also running on the remote machine.
-To register access of this local xpa on the remote machine, use 
-the xpaset and the <B>-remote</B> sub-command:
-<PRE>
-  [sh]$ ./xpaset -p xpa -remote 'remote_machine:$port' +
-</PRE>
-To register the local xpa access point on the remote machine with xpaget
-access only, execute:
-<PRE>
-  [sh]$ ./xpaset -p xpa -remote 'remote_machine:$port' g
-</PRE>
-Once the remote registration command is executed, the remote client
-machine will have an entry such as the following in its own xpans name
-service:
-<PRE>
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpans
-  XPA xpa gs 88877766:2839 eric
-</PRE>
-The xpa access point can now be utilized on the remote machine without
-further setup:
-<PRE>
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpa
-  class: XPA
-  name: xpa
-  method: 838e2f68:2839
-  sendian: little
-  cendian: big
-</PRE>
-To unregister remote access from the local machine, use the same
-command but with a '-' argument:
-<PRE>
-  [sh]$ xpaset -p xpa -remote 'remote_machine:$port' -
-</PRE>
-The benefit of using remote registration is that communication with
-remote access points can be mixed with that of other access points
-on the remote machine.  Using <A HREF="./template.html">Access Point
-Names and Templates</A>, one XPA command can be used to send or
-receive messages to the remote and local services.
-
-<H2>XPANS Proxy Registration</H2>
-
-The two methods described above are useful when the local and remote
-machines are able to communicate freely to one another. This would be
-the case on most Local Area Networks (LANs) where all machines are
-behind the same firewall and there is no port blocking between
-machines on the same LAN.  The situation is more complicated when the
-XPA server is behind a firewall, where outgoing connections are
-allowed, but incoming port blocking is implemented to prevent machines
-outside the firewall from connecting to machines inside the
-firewall. Such incoming port blocking will prevent xpaset and xpaget
-from connecting to an XPA server inside a firewall.
-
-<P>
-To allow locally fire-walled XPA services to register with remote
-machines, we have implemented a proxy service within the xpans name
-server. To register remote proxy service, xpaset and the
-<B>-remote</B> sub-command is again used, but with an additional
-<B>-proxy</B> argument added to the end of the command:
-<PRE>
-  [sh]$ ./xpaset -p xpa -remote 'remote_machine:$port' g -proxy
-</PRE>
-Once a remote proxy registration command is executed, the remote
-machine will have an entry such as the following in its own xpans name
-service:
-<PRE>
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpans
-  XPA xpa gs @88877766:2839 eric
-</PRE>
-The '@' sign in the name service entry indicates that xpans proxy
-processing is being used for this access point. Other than that, from
-the user's point of view, there is no difference in how this XPA
-access point is contacted using XPA programs (xpaset, xpaget, etc.) or
-libraries:
-<PRE>
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpa
-  class: XPA
-  name: xpa
-  method: 88877766:3053
-  sendian: little
-  cendian: big
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Of course, the underlying processing of the XPA requests is very much
-different when xpans proxy is involved. Instead of an XPA program such
-contacting the XPA service directly, it contacts the local xpans.
-Acting as a proxy server, xpans communicates with the XPA service
-using the command channel established at registration time. Commands
-(including establishing a new data channel) are sent between xpans and
-the XPA service to set up a new message transfer, and then data is fed
-to/from the xpa request, through xpans, from/to the XPA service. In
-this way, it can be arranged so that connections between the
-fire-walled XPA service and the remote client are always initiated by
-the XPA service itself. Thus, incoming connections that would be
-blocked by the firewall are avoided. Note that there is a performance
-penalty for using the xpans/proxy service.  Aside from extra overhead
-to set up proxy communication, all data must be sent through the
-intermediate proxy process.
-
-<P>
-The xpans proxy scheme requires that the remote client allow the local
-XPA server machine to connect to the remote xpans/proxy server. If the
-remote client machine also is behind a port-blocking firewall, such
-connections will be disallowed. In this case, the only solution is to
-open up some ports on the remote client machine to allow incoming
-connections to xpans/proxy. Two ports must be opened (for command and
-data channel connections). By default, these two ports are 14285 and
-14287. The port numbers can be changed using the <B>XPA_NSINET</B>
-environment variable. This variable takes the form:
-<PRE>
-  setenv XPA_NSINET machine:port1[,port2[,port3]]
-</PRE>
-where port1 is the main connecting port, port2 is the XPA access port,
-and port3 is the secondary data connecting port. The second and third
-ports are optional and default to port1+1 and port1+2, respectively.
-It is port1 and port3 that must be left open for incoming connections.
-
-<P>
-For example, to change the port assignments so that xpans listens
-for registration commands on port 12345 and data commands on port 28573:
-<PRE>
-  setenv XPA_NSINET myhost:12345
-</PRE>
-Alternatively, all three ports can be assigned explicitly:
-<PRE>
-  setenv XPA_NSINET remote:12345,3000,12346
-</PRE>
-In this case 12345 and 12346 should be open for incoming connections.
-The XPA access port (which need not be open to the outside
-world) is set to 3000.
-
-<P>
-Finally, note that we currently have no mechanism to cope with
-Internet proxy servers (such as SOCKS servers). If an XPA service is
-running on a machine that cannot connect directly to outside machines,
-but goes through a proxy server instead, there currently is no way to
-register that XPA service with a remote machine.  We hope to implement
-support for SOCKS proxy in a future release.

-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpans
-</PRE>
-If, for example, the

-
-<P>
-Each XPA access point supports a number of reserved sub-commands that provide

-The following reserved sub-commands are defined for all access points:
-<DL>
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>-acl</B> get (set) the access control list [options: host type acl, for set]

-variable to the specified value.
-This access point is available only on the server machine.
-(Please be advised that we have had problems setting environment
-variables in static Tcl/Tk programs such as ds9 running under Linux.)
-

-
-<P>
-<DT><B>-remote</B> set: register xpa with remote server [options: host[:port] [acl]] [-proxy]
-<DD>
-This sub-command will register the XPA access point with the XPA name
-server (xpans) on the specified host (which must already be running).
-The specified host also is given access control to the access point,
-using the specified acl or the default acl of "+" (meaning the remote
-host can xpaset, xpaget, xpainfo or xpaaccess). If the acl is
-specified as "-", then the access point is unregistered.

-</DL>
-
-<P>
-You can add your own reserved commands to all XPA access points by using the
-<A HREF="./server.html#xpacmdadd">XPACmdAdd()</A>

-<!-- =section xpaintro SYNOPSIS -->
-<H2>Summary</H2>
-<P>
-A brief introduction to the XPA messaging system, which provides
-seamless communication between all kinds of Unix event-driven
-programs, including X programs, Tcl/Tk programs, and Perl programs.
-
-<!-- =section xpaintro DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-The XPA messaging system provides seamless communication between all
-kinds of Unix programs, including X programs, Tcl/Tk programs, and
-Perl programs.  It also provides an easy way for users to communicate
-with these XPA-enabled programs by executing XPA client commands in
-the shell or by utilizing such commands in scripts.  Because XPA works
-both at the programming level and the shell level, it is a powerful
-tool for unifying any analysis environment: users and programmers have
-great flexibility in choosing the best level or levels at which to
-access XPA services, and client access can be extended or modified
-easily at any time.
-
-<P>
-A program becomes an XPA-enabled server by defining named points of
-public access through which data and commands can be exchanged with
-other client programs (and users).  Using standard TCP sockets as
-a transport mechanism, XPA supports both single-point and broadcast
-messaging to and from these servers.  It supports direct communication
-between clients and servers, or indirect communication via an
-intermediate message bus emulation program. Host-based access control
-is implemented, as is as the ability to communicate with XPA servers
-across a network.
-
-<P>
-XPA implements a layered interface that is designed to be useful both
-to software developers and to users.  The interface consists of a
-library of XPA client and server routines for use in programs and a
-suite of high-level user programs built on top of these libraries.
-Using the XPA library, access points can be added to
-<A HREF="./tcl.html#">Tcl/Tk</A>
-programs, 
-<A HREF="./xt.html#">Xt</A>
-programs, or to Unix programs that use the XPA event loop or any
-event loop based on select().  Client access subroutines can be added
-to any Tcl/Tk or Unix program. Client access also is supported at the
-command line via a suite of high-level programs. 
-
-<P>
-The major components of the XPA layered interface are:
-<UL>
-<LI>
-A set of XPA server routines, centered on 
-<A HREF="./server.html#xpanew">XPANew(),</A>
-which are used by XPA server programs to tag public access points with
-string identifiers and to register send and receive callbacks for
-these access points.
-
-<LI>
-A set of XPA client routines, centered on the 
-<A HREF="./client.html#xpaset">XPASet()</A>
-and
-<A HREF="./client.html#xpaget">XPAGet(),</A>
-which are used by external client applications to exchange data and
-commands with an XPA server.
-
-<LI>
-High-level programs, centered on
-<A HREF="./programs.html#xpaset">xpaset</A>
-and
-<A HREF="./programs.html#xpaget">xpaget,</A>
-which allow data
-and information to be exchanged with XPA server programs from the
-command line and from scripts.  These programs have the command syntax:
-<PRE>
-  [data] | xpaset <XPA name> [qualifiers ...]
-           xpaget <XPA name> [qualifiers ...]
-</PRE>
-<LI>
-An XPA name server program, 
-<A HREF="./xpans.html">xpans,</A>
-through which XPA access point names are
-registered by servers and distributed to clients.
-</UL>
-
-<P>
-Defining an XPA access point is easy: a server application calls
-<A HREF="./server.html#xpanew">XPANew(),</A>
-<A HREF="./server.html#xpacmdnew">XPACmdNew(),</A>
-or the experimental
-<A HREF="./server.html#xpainfonew">XPAInfoNew()</A>
-routine to
-create a named public access point.  An XPA service can specify "send"
-and "receive" callback procedures (or an "info" procedure in the case
-of XPAInfoNew()) to be executed by the program when an external
-process either sends data or commands to this access point or requests
-data or information from this access point.  Either of the callbacks
-can be omitted, so that a particular access point can be specified as
-read-only, read-write, or write-only.  Application-specific client
-data can be associated with these callbacks.  Having defined one or
-more public access points in this way, an XPA server program enters
-its usual event loop (or uses the standard XPA event loop).
-
-<P>
-Clients communicate with these XPA public access points
-using programs such as
-<A HREF="./programs.html#xpaget">xpaget</A>,
-<A HREF="./programs.html#xpaset">xpaset</A>, and
-<A HREF="./programs.html#xpainfo">xpainfo</A>
-(at the command line),
-or routines such as
-<A HREF="./client.html#xpaget">XPAGet(),</A>
-<A HREF="./client.html#xpaset">XPASet(),</A>
-and
-<A HREF="./client.html#xpainfo">XPAInfo()</A>
-within a program.  Both methods require specification of the name of
-the access point.  The xpaget program returns data or other
-information from an XPA server to its standard output, while the
-xpaset program sends data or commands from its standard input to an
-XPA application. The corresponding API routines set/get data to/from
-memory, returning error messages and other info as needed.  If a
-<A HREF="./template.html">template</A>
-is used to specify the access point name (e.g., "ds9*"), then
-communication will take place with all servers matching that template.
-
-<p>
-Please note that XPA currently is not thread-safe. All XPA calls must be
-in the same thread.

-
-<!-- =section xpamethod SYNOPSIS -->
-<H2>Summary</H2>
-<P>
-XPA supports both inet and unix (local) socket communication.
-
-<!-- =section xpamethod DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-XPA uses sockets for communication between processes. It supports
-three methods of socket communication: inet, localhost, and unix. In
-general, the same method should be employed for all XPA processes in a
-session and the global environment variable XPA_METHOD should be used
-to set up the desired method. By default, the preferred method is
-"inet", which is appropriate for most users. You can set up a
-different method by typing something like:
-<PRE>
-  setenv XPA_METHOD local              # unix csh
-  XPA_METHOD=local; export XPA_METHOD  # unix sh, bash, windows/cygwin
-  set XPA_METHOD=localhost             # dos/windows
-</PRE>
-The options for XPA_METHOD are: <B>inet</B>, <B>unix</B> (or
-<B>local</B>), and <B>localhost</B>. On Unix machines, this
-environment setup command can be placed in your shell init file
-(.cshrc, .profile, .bashrc, etc.) On Windows platforms, it can be
-placed in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file (I think!).
-
-<P>
-By default, <B>inet</B> sockets are used by XPA. These are the standard
-Internet sockets that are used by programs such as Netscape,
-ftp. etc. Inet sockets utilize the IP address of the given machine and
-a (usually random) port number to communicate between processes on the
-same machine or between different machines on the Internet. (Note that
-XPA has an <A HREF="./acl.html">Access Control</A> mechanism to
-prevent unauthorized access of XPA access points by other computers on
-the Net). For users connected to the Internet, this usually is the
-appropriate communication method. For more information about setting
-up XPA communication between machines, see
-<A HREF="./inet.html">Communication Between Machines</A>.

-In you are using XPA on a machine without an Internet connection, then
-inet sockets are not appropriate. In fact, an XPA process often will
-hang for many seconds while waiting for a response from the Domain
-Name Service (DNS) when using inet sockets. Instead of inet sockets,
-users on Unix platforms can also use <B>unix</B> sockets (also known
-as local sockets). These sockets are based on the local file system
-and do not make use of the DNS. They generally are considered to be
-faster than inet sockets, but they are not implemented under
-Windows. Use local sockets as a first resort if you are on a Unix
-machine that is not connected to the Internet.
-
-<P>
-Users not connected to the Internet also can use <B>localhost</B>
-sockets. These are also inet-type sockets but the IP address used for
-the local machine is the <B>localhost</B> address, 0x7F000001, instead
-of the real IP of the machine. Depending on how sockets are set up for
-a given platform, communication with the DNS usually is not required in
-this case (though of course, XPA cannot interact with other machines).
-The localhost method will generally work on both Unix and Windows
-platforms, but whether the DNS is required or not is subject to
-individual configurations.
-
-<P>
-A final warning/reminder: if your XPA-enabled server hangs at startup
-time and your XPA_METHOD is <B>inet</B>, the problem probably is
-related to an incorrect Internet configuration. This can be confirmed
-by using the <B>unix</B> method or (usually) the <B>localhost</B>
-method. You can use these alternate methods if other hosts do not need
-access to the XPA server.

-What does XPA stand for? Dunno! The XPA messaging system originally
-was built on top of the X Window System and XPA was the mnemonic for
-<EM>X Public Access</EM>, to emphasize that we were providing public
-access to previously private data and algorithms in Xt programs.  Now
-that XPA no longer is tied to X, it can be argued that we ought to
-change the name (how about <EM>SPAM: simple public access mechanism
-</EM>), but XPA is in wide-spread use in the astronomical community of
-its birth, and the name has taken on a life of its own. If anyone can
-think of what XPA now means, please let us know.

-If you think this is bad, consider the MMT Telescope on Mount Hopkins,

-were replaced by a single 21 and 1/2 -foot diameter primary mirror,
-the largest single-piece glass reflector on the North American
-continent. And now MMT stands for ... MMT!

-B<XPA: Public Access to Data and Algorithms>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-This document is the Table of Contents for XPA.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-The XPA messaging system provides seamless communication between many
-kinds of Unix programs, including X programs and Tcl/Tk programs.  It
-also provides an easy way for users to communicate with XPA-enabled
-programs by executing XPA client commands in the shell or by utilizing
-such commands in scripts.  Because XPA works both at the programming
-level and the shell level, it is a powerful tool for unifying any
-analysis environment: users and programmers have great flexibility in
-choosing the best level or levels at which to access XPA services, and
-client access can be extended or modified easily at any time.
-
-
-A program becomes an XPA-enabled server by defining named points of
-public access through which data and commands can be exchanged with
-other client programs (and users).  Using standard TCP sockets as a
-transport mechanism, XPA supports both single-point and broadcast
-messaging to and from these servers.  It supports direct communication
-between clients and servers, or indirect communication via an
-intermediate message bus emulation program. Host-based access control
-is implemented, as is as the ability to communicate with XPA servers
-across a network.
-
-
-XPA implements a layered interface that is designed to be useful both
-to software developers and to users.  The interface consists of a
-library of XPA client and server routines for use in C/C++ programs and
-a suite of high-level user programs built on top of these libraries.
-Using the XPA library, access points can be added to Tcl/Tk programs,
-Xt programs, or to Unix programs that use the XPA event loop or any
-event loop based on select().  Client access subroutines can be added
-to any Tcl/Tk, Xt, or Unix program. Client access also is supported at
-the command line via a suite of high-level programs.

-
-
-
-
-xpaaccess [-c] [-h] [-i nsinet] [-m method] [-n] [-t sval,lval] [-u users] -v <template> [type]
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 OPTIONS
-
-
-
-
-
-  -c		contact each access point individually
-  -h		print help message
-  -i		access XPA point on different machine (override XPA_NSINET)
-  -m		override XPA_METHOD environment variable
-  -n		return number of matches instead of "yes" or "no"
-  -t [s,l]	set short and long timeouts (override XPA_[SHORT,LONG]_TIMEOUT)
-  -u [users]	XPA points can be from specified users (override XPA_NSUSERS)
-  -v		print info about each successful access point
-  -V		print info or error about each access point
-  --version     display version and exit
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-xpaaccess returns "yes" to stdout (with a return error code if 1) if there are
-existing XPA access points that match the 
-template
-(and optional access type: g,i,s). Otherwise, it returns "no" (with a
-return error code of 0).  If -n is specified, the number of matches is
-returned instead (both to stdout and in the returned error code). If
--v is specified, each access point is displayed to stdout instead of
-the number of matches.
-
-
-By default, xpaaccess simply contacts the xpans name server to find
-the list of registered access points that match the specified
-template. It also checks to make sure the specified types are
-supported by that access point. This is the fastest way to determine
-available access points. However, an access point might registered but
-not yet available, if, for example, the server program has not entered
-its event loop to process XPA requests. To find access points that are
-guaranteed to be available for processing, use the -c (contact)
-switch.  With this switch, xpaaccess contacts each matching XPA server
-(rather than the name server) to make sure the registered access point
-really is ready for processing. In this mode, if an access point is
-registered but not available, xpaaccess will pause for a period of
-time equal to the XPA_LONG_TIMEOUT, in order to give the server a
-chance to ready itself. By default, this timeout is 30 seconds. You
-can shorten the time of delay using the -t "short,long" switch. For
-example, to shorten the delay time to 2 seconds, use:
-
-  xpaaccess -c -t "2,2" ds9
-
-The first argument is the short delay value, and is ignored in this
-operation. The second is the long delay timeout.
-
-
-Note also that the default xpaaccess method (no -c switch) does not
-check access control (acls) but rather only checks whether the access
-point is both registered with the xpans name server and provides the
-specified type of access. In other words, the default xpaaccess could
-return 'yes' when you might not actually have access. This mode also
-always returns 'yes' for the xpans name server itself, regardless of
-whether the name server is active. The -c (contact) switch, which
-contacts the access point directly, can and does check the access
-control (only for servers using version 2.1 and above) and also
-returns the real status of xpans.

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPAAcl: Access Control for XPA Messaging>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-XPA supports host-based access control for each XPA access point.  You
-can enable/disable access control using the XPA_ACL environment
-variable. You can specify access to specific XPA access points for
-specific machines using the XPA_DEFACL and XPA_ACLFILE environment
-variables. By default, an XPA access point is accessible only to
-processes running on the same machine (same as X Windows).
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-When INET sockets are in use (the default, as specified by the
-I<XPA_METHOD> environment variable), XPA supports a host-based
-access control mechanism for individual access points. This mean that
-access can be specified for get, set, or info operations for each
-access point on a machine by machine basis.  For LOCAL sockets, access
-is restricted (by definition) to the host machine.
-
-
-XPA access control is enabled by default, but can be turned off by
-setting the I<XPA_ACL> environment variable to I<false>.
-In this case, any process can access any XPA server.
-
-
-Assuming that access control is turned on, the ACL for an individual
-XPA access point is set up when that access point is registered
-(although it can be changed later on; see below). This can be done in
-one of two ways:
-
-Firstly, the I<XPA_ACLFILE> environment variable can defined to
-point to a file of access controls for individual access points. The format
-of this file is:
-
- class:name ip acl
-
-The first argument is a template that specifies the class:name of the
-access point covered by this ACL. See
-XPA Access Points and Templates
-for more information about xpa templates.
-
-
-The second argument is the IP address (in human-readable format) of
-the machine which is being given access.  This argument can be
-I<*> to match all IP addresses.  It also can be I<$host>
-to match the IP address of the current host.
-
-
-The third argument is a string combination of I<s>, I<g>,
-or I<i> to allow I<xpaset>, I<xpaget>, or
-I<xpainfo> access respectively.  The ACL argument can be
-I<+> to give I<sgi> access or it can be I<-> to turn
-off all access.
-
-
-For example,
-
-  *:xpa1  somehost sg
-  *:xpa1  myhost +
-  * * g
-
-will allow processes on the machine somehost to make xpaget and xpaset calls,
-allow processes on myhost to make any call, and allow all other hosts to
-make xpaget (but not xpaset) calls.
-
-Secondly, if the I<XPA_ACLFILE> does not exist, then a single
-default value for all access points can be specified using the
-I<XPA_DEFACL> environment variable.  The default value for this
-variable is:
-
-  #define XPA_DEFACL "*:* $host +"
-
-meaning that all access points are fully accessible to all processes
-on the current host. Thus, in the absence of any ACL environment variables,
-processes on the current host have full access to all access points
-created on that host. This parallels the X11 xhost mechanism.
-
-
-Access to an individual XPA access point can be changed using the -acl
-parameter for that access point.  For example:
-
-  xpaset -p xpa1 -acl "somehost -"
-
-will turn off all access control for somehost to the xpa1 access point, while:
-
-  xpaset -p XPA:xpa1 -acl "beberly gs"
-
-will give beberly xpaget and xpaset access to the access point whose
-class is XPA and whose name is xpa1.
-
-Similarly, the current ACL for a given access point can be retrieved using:
-
-  xpaget xpa1 -acl
-
-Of course, you must have xpaget access to this XPA access point to
-retrieve its ACL.
-
-
-Note that the XPA access points registered in the I<xpans>
-program also behave according to the ACL rules.  That is, you cannot
-use xpaget to view the access points registered with xpans unless
-you have the proper ACL.
-
-
-Note also when a client request is made to an XPA server, the access
-control is checked when the initial connection is established.  This
-access in effect at this time remains in effect so long as the client
-connection is maintained, regardless of whether the access fro that
-XPA is changed later on.
-
-
-We recognize that host-based access control is only relatively secure
-and will consider more stringent security (e.g., private key) in the
-future if the community requires such support.

-
-  void XPAAtExit(void);
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-XPAAtExit() will install an exit handler using atexit() to run XPAFree on all
-XPA access points. This might be useful in cases where Unix sockets are being
-used: if an explicit call to XPAFree() is not made by the program, the Unix
-socket file will not be deleted immediately without an atexit handler. (NB: this
-call should not be made in a Tcl/Tk application. Accessing the Tcl native file
-system after Tcl has shut down all file systems causes the Tcl/Tl program to
-crash).

-
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-XPA commands no longer have a resolver routine (this is open to
-negotiations, but we decided the idea was dumb).  For the SAOtng
-program, this means that you must explicitly specify the access
-point, i.e.,:
-
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset SAOtng fits
-
-
-
-instead of:
-
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset SAOtng
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-By default, xpaset, xpaget, etc. now wait for the server callback to
-complete; i.e., the old -W is implied (and the switch is ignored).
-This allows support for better error handling.  If you want xpaset, etc.
-to return before the callback is complete, use -n switch:
-
-  echo "file foo.fits" | xpaset -n SAOtng
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-The old -w switch in xpaset and xpaget is no longer necessary (and is
-ignored), since you can have more than one process communicating with
-an xpa access point at one time.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-The new -p switch on xpaset means you need not read from stdout:
-              
-  xpaset -p SAOtng colormap I8
-
-
-will send the paramlist to the SAOtng callback without reading from stdin.

-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-When XPA is initialized, it allocates a small amount of memory for the
-access control list, temp directory path, and reserved commands. This
-memory is found by valgrind to be "still reachable", meaning that "your
-program didn't free some memory it could have". Calling the
-XPACleanup() routine before exiting the program will free this memory
-and make valgrind happy.

-B<Introduction to XPA Client Programming>
-
-Sending/receiving data to/from an XPA access point is easy: you
-generally only need to call the XPAGet() or XPASet() subroutines.
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  int XPAGet(XPA xpa,
-      char *template, char *paramlist, char *mode,
-      char **bufs, size_t *lens, char **names, char **messages, int n);

-      char ***classes, char ***names, char ***methods, char ***infos);
-
-
-B<Introduction>
-
-To use the XPA application programming interface, a software developer
-generally will include the xpa.h definitions file:
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-in the software module that defines or accesses an XPA access point and
-then will link against the libxpa.a library:
-
-  gcc -o foo foo.c libxpa.a
-
-XPA has been compiled using both C and C++ compilers.
-
-Client communication with XPA public access points generally is
-accomplished using XPAGet() or XPASet() within a program (or xpaget
-and xpaset at the command line).  Both routines require specification
-of the name of the access point.  If a template
-is used to specify the access point name (e.g., "ds9*"), then
-communication will take place with all servers matching that template.

-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-Add a command to an XPA command access point. The XPA argument specifies the
-XPA struct returned by a call to XPANewCmd(). The name argument is the
-name of the command. The other arguments function identically to the
-arguments in the XPANew() command, i.e., the send_callback and rec_callback
-routines have identical calling sequences to their XPANew() counterparts,
-with the exceptions noted below.
-
-
-When help is requested for a command access point using:
-
-  xpaget -h class:name
-
-
-all of the command help strings are listed.  To get help for a given
-command, use:
-
-  xpaget -h class:name cmd
-
-
-Also, the acl keyword in the send_mode and receive_mode strings is
-global to the access point, not local to the command.  Thus, the value
-for the acl mode should be the same in all send_mode (or receive_mode)
-strings for each command in a command access point. (The acl for
-send_mode need not be the same as the acl for receive_mode, though).

-B<XPACmdNew: create a new XPA public access point for commands>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  XPA XPACmdNew(char *class, char *name);
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-Create a new XPA public access point for commands that will share a
-common identifier class:name. Enter this access point into the XPA
-name server, so that it can be accessed by external processes.
-XPACmdNew() returns an XPA struct.
-
-
-It often is more convenient to have one public access point that can
-manage a number of commands, rather than having individual access
-points for each command. For example, it is easier to command the
-ds9 image display using:
-
-  echo "colormap I8"   | xpaset ds9
-  echo "scale log"     | xpaset ds9
-  echo "file foo.fits" | xpaset ds9
-
-
-then to use:
-
-  echo "I8"       | xpaset ds9_colormap
-  echo "log"      | xpaset ds9_scale
-  echo "foo.fits" | xpaset ds9_file
-
-
-In the first case, the commands remain the same regardless of the
-target XPA name.  In the second case, the command names must change
-for each instance of ds9.  That is, if a second instance of ds9
-called DS9 were running, it would be commanded either as:
-
-  echo "colormap I8"   | xpaset DS9
-  echo "scale log"     | xpaset DS9
-  echo "file foo.fits" | xpaset DS9
-
-
-or as:
-
-  echo "I8"       | xpaset DS9_colormap
-  echo "log"      | xpaset DS9_scale
-  echo "foo.fits" | xpaset DS9_file
-
-
-Thus, in cases where a program is going to manage many commands, it
-generally is easier to define them as commands associated with the
-XPACmdNew() routine, rather than as separate access points using
-XPANew().
-
-
-When XPACmdNew() is called, only the class:name identifier is
-specified.  Each sub-command is subsequently defined using the
-XPACmdAdd() routine.

-
-B<XPACode: Where to Find Example/Test Code>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-The XPA source code directory contains two test programs,
-I<stest.c>, and I<ctest.c> that can serve as
-examples for writing XPA servers and clients, respectively.
-They also can be used to test various features of XPA.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-To build the XPA test programs, execute:
-
-   make All
-
-in the XPA source directory to generate the I<stest> and
-I<ctest> programs.  (NB: this should work on all platforms,
-although we have had problems with unresolved externals on one
-Sun/Solaris machine, for reasons still unknown.)
-
-The stest program can be executed with no arguments to start
-an XPA server that contains the access points: xpa, xpa1,
-c_xpa (containing sub-commands cmd1 and cmd2), and i_xpa.
-You then can use xpaset and xpaget to interact with these access points:
-
-  cat xpa.c | xpaset xpa      # send to xpa
-  cat xpa.c | xpaset "xpa*"   # send to xpa and xpa1
-  xpaget xpa                  # receive from xpa
-  xpaget xpa*                 # receive from xpa and xpa1
-
-etc. You also can use ctest to do the same thing, or to iterate:
-
-  ctest -s -l 100 xpa        # send to xpa 100 times
-  ctest -s -l 100 "xpa*"     # send to xpa and xpa1 100 times
-  ctest -g -l 100 xpa        # receive from xpa 100 times
-  ctest -g -l 100 "xpa*"     # receive from xpa and xpa1 100 times
-
-More options are available: see the stest.c and ctest.c code itself, which
-were used extensively to debug XPA.
-
-
-The file test.tcl in the XPA source directory gives examples for using the 
-XPATclInterface.

-
-B<XPACommon: Getting Common Information About Access Points>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-There are various kinds of generic information you can retrieve about
-an XPA access point by using the xpaget command.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-You can find out which XPA access points have been registered with
-the currently running 
-XPA name server
-by executing the
-xpaget
-command to retrieve info from the XPA name server:
-
-  xpaget xpans
-
-If, for example, the
-stest test server program
-is running, the following XPA access points will be returned (the specifics
-of the returned info will vary for different machines and users):
-
-  XPA xpa gs 838e2f67:1262 eric
-  XPA xpa1 gs 838e2f67:1266 eric
-  XPA c_xpa gs 838e2f67:1267 eric
-  XPA i_xpa i 838e2f67:1268 eric
-
-Note that access to this information is subject to the usual
-XPA Access Control restrictions.
-
-
-Each XPA access point supports a number of reserved sub-commands that provide
-access to different kinds of information, e.g. the access control for
-that access point.  These sub-commands can be executed by using
-xpaset
-or
-xpaget
-at the command line, or
-XPAGet()
-or
-XPASet()
-in programs, e.g:
-
-  xpaget ds9 -acl
-  xpaget ds9 -help
-  xpaget ds9 env FOO
-
-  xpaset -p ds9 env FOO foofoo
-
-With the exception of B<-help> and B<-version>, reserved
-sub-commands are available only on the machine on which the XPA server
-itself is running.
-
-The following reserved sub-commands are defined for all access points:
-
-
-=over 4
-
-
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-acl> get (set) the access control list [options: host type acl, for set]
-
-
-The 'xpaset' option allows you to add a new acl for a given host, or change
-the acl for an existing host. See
-XPA Access Control
-for more information.
-This access point is available only on the server machine.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-env> get (set) an environment variable [options: name (value, for set)]
-
-
-The 'xpaget' option will return the value of the named environment
-variable.  The 'xpaset' option will set the value of the names
-variable to the specified value.
-This access point is available only on the server machine.
-(Please be advised that we have had problems setting environment
-variables in static Tcl/Tk programs such as ds9 running under Linux.)
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-clipboard> set(get) information on a named clipboard
-
-
-Clients can store ASCII state information on any number of named
-clipboards. Clipboards of the same name created by clients on
-different machines are kept separate.  The syntax for creating a
-clipboard is:
-
-  [data] | xpaset [server] -clipboard add|append [clipboard_name]
-  xpaset -p [server] -clipboard delete [clipboard_name]
-
-Use "add" to create a new clipboard or replace the contents of an existing
-one. Use "append" to append to an existing clipboard.
-
-Information on a named clipboard is retrieved using:
-
-  xpaget [server] -clipboard [clipboard_name]
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-exec> set: execute commands from buffer [options: none]
-
-
-If -exec is specified in the paramlist of an 'xpaset' call, then further
-sub-commands will be retrieved from the data buffer.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-help> get: return help string for this XPA or sub-command [options: name (for sub-commands)]
-
-
-Each XPA access point and each XPA sub-command can have a help string
-associated with it that is specified when the access point is defined.
-The -help option will return this help string.  For XPA access points
-that contain user-defined sub-commands, you can get the help string
-for a particular sub-command by specifying its name, or else get the
-help strings for all sub-commands if not name is specified.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-ltimeout> get (set) the long timeout value [options: seconds|reset]
-
-
-The 'xpaget' option will return the value of the long timeout (in seconds).
-The 'xpaset' option will set the value of the long timeout. If "reset" is
-specified, then the timeout value will be reset to the default value.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-nsconnect> set: re-establish name server connection to all XPA's [options: none]
-
-
-If the 
-XPA Name Server (xpans)
-process has terminated unexpectedly and then re-started, this
-sub-command can be used to re-establish the connection.  You use it by
-sending the command to the [name:port] or [file] of the access point
-instead of to the XPA name (since the latter requires the xpans
-connection!):
-
-  xpaset -p 838e2f67:1268 -nsconnect
-
-See xpans for more information.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-nsdisconnect> set: break name server connection to all XPA's [options: none]
-
-
-This sub-command will terminate the connection to the
-XPA Name Server (xpans), thereby making
-all access points inaccessible except through their underlying [name:port]
-or [file] identifiers.  I forget why we added it, it seems pretty useless.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-stimeout> get (set) the short timeout value [options: seconds|reset]
-
-
-The 'xpaget' option will return the value of the short timeout (in seconds).
-The 'xpaset' option will set the value of the short timeout. If "reset" is
-specified, then the timeout value will be reset to the default value.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-remote> set: register xpa with remote server [options: host[:port] [acl]] [-proxy]
-
-
-This sub-command will register the XPA access point with the XPA name
-server (xpans) on the specified host (which must already be running).
-The specified host also is given access control to the access point,
-using the specified acl or the default acl of "+" (meaning the remote
-host can xpaset, xpaget, xpainfo or xpaaccess). If the acl is
-specified as "-", then the access point is unregistered. 
-See Communication Between Machines
-for more information on how this sub-command is used.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-version> get: return XPA version string [options: none]
-
-
-The version refers to the version of XPA used to define this access point
-(currently something like 2.0).
-
-
-
-=back
-
-
-
-
-You can add your own reserved commands to all XPA access points by using the
-XPACmdAdd()
-routine, passing the XPA handle returned by I<XPA XPAGetReserved(void)>
-as the first argument. Note again that these will only be available on the
-machine where the XPA service is running.

-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-

-
-
-
-This document describes tips for converting from xpa 1.0 (Xt-based
-xpa) to xpa 2.0 (socket-based xpa).
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-The following are tips for converting from xpa 1.0 (Xt-based xpa) to
-xpa 2.0 (socket-based xpa). The changes are straight-forward and
-almost can be done automatically (we used editor macros for most of
-the conversion).
-

-
-The existence of the cpp XPA_VERSION directive to distinguish between 1.0
-(where it is not defined) and 2.0 (where it is defined).
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-Remove the first widget argument from all send and receive server
-callbacks.  Also change first 2 arguments from XtPointer to void
-*. For example:
-
-#ifdef XPA_VERSION
-static void XPAReceiveFile(client_data, call_data, paramlist, buf, len)
-     void *client_data;
-     void *call_data;
-     char *paramlist;
-     char *buf;
-     int len;
-#else
-static void XPAReceiveFile(w, client_data, call_data, paramlist, buf, len)
-     Widget w;
-     XtPointer client_data;
-     XtPointer call_data;
-     char *paramlist;
-     char *buf;
-     int len;
-#endif
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-Server callbacks should be declared as returning int instead
-of void. They now should return 0 for no errors, -1 for error.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-The mode flags have changed when defining XPA server callbacks.
-The old I<S> flag (save buffer) is replaced by I<freebuf=false>.
-The old I<E> flag (empty buffer is OK) is no longer used (it
-was an artifact of the X implementation).
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-Change NewXPACommand() to XPAcmdNew(), with the new calling sequence:
-
-  xpa = NewXPACommand(toplevel, NULL, prefix, NULL);
-
-is changed to:
-
-  xpa = XPACmdNew(xclass, name);
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-Change the AddXPACommand() subroutine name to XPACmdAdd (with the same
-calling sequence):
-
-  AddXPACommand(xpa, "file",
-    "\tdisplay a new file\n\t\t  requires: filename",
-    NULL, NULL, NULL, XPAReceiveFile, text, NULL);
-

-
-  XPACmdAdd(xpa, "file",
-    "\tdisplay a new file\n\t\t  requires: filename",
-    NULL, NULL, NULL, XPAReceiveFile, text, NULL);
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-The XPAXtAppInput() routine should be called just before XtAppMainLoop()
-to add xpa fds to the Xt event loop:
-
-  /* add the xpas to the Xt loop */
-  XPAXtAddInput(app, NULL);
-
-  /* process events */
-  XtAppMainLoop(app);

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPAEnv: Environment Variables for XPA Messaging>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-Describes the environment variables which can be used to tailor the overall
-XPA environment.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-The following environment variables are supported by XPA:
-
-
-=over 4
-
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_ACL>
-
-
-If I<XPA_ACL> is I<true>, then 
-host-based XPA Access Control
-is turned on and only specified machines can access specified access
-points.  If I<false>, then access control is turned off and any
-machine can access point. The default is turn turn access control on.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_ACLFILE>
-
-
-If
-XPA Access Control
-is turned on, this variable specifies the name of the file containing
-access control information for all access points started by this user.
-The default file name is: I<$HOME/acls.xpa>.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_CONNECT_TIMEOUT>
-
-
-When an XPA server first starts up, it immediately tries to
-connect to the XPA name server program (xpans) on the host specified by
-the I<XPA_NSINET> variable. (If this connection fails on the
-local host, and if xpans can be found in the path, then the name
-server is started automatically.)  Unfortunately, a mis-configured
-network can cause this connect attempt to hang for many seconds while
-the connect() system call times out. Therefore, an alarm is started
-to interrupt the connect() call and prevent a long hang.  The initial
-value of the alarm timeout is 10 seconds, but can be changed by setting
-this environment variable. If you want to disable the alarm and allow
-the initial connect() to time out, set the value of this variable to
-0. Normally, users would not change this variable at all.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_CLIENT_DOXPA>
-
-
-Normally, an XPA client (xpaget, xpaset, etc.) will process incoming
-XPA server requests while awaiting the completion of the client request.
-Setting this variable to "false" will prevent XPA server requests from
-being processed by the client.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_DEFACL>
-
-
-If
-XPA Access Control
-is turned on, this variable specifies the default access control
-condition for all access points, if the I<XPA_ACLFILE> file does
-not exist.  The default acl is: I<$host:* $host +>, meaning that
-all processes on the host machine have full access to all access points.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_HOST>
-
-
-For the INET socket method, XPA utilizes the canonical hostname (as
-returned by the gethostname() routine) to construct the IP part of the
-method id. Under some circumstances, this might not be a correct choice
-of name and IP. For example, if an XPA server is started on a machine
-running VPN, you might want to use the VPN name and IP instead of the
-canonical host name, so that other machines in the VPN network can
-access the server. In this case, you can set the XPA_HOST to be
-the VPN name (if resolvable) or, more easily, the VPN IP.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_IOCALLSXPA>
-
-
-Setting this variable causes all XPA socket IO calls to process
-outstanding XPA requests whenever the primary socket is not ready for
-IO. This means that a server making a client call will (recursively)
-process incoming server requests while waiting for client completion.
-This inter-IO XPA processing avoids a rare
-XPA Race Condition: two or more
-XPA servers sending messages to one another using an XPA client
-routine such as XPASet() can deadlock while each waits for the other
-server to respond. This can happen, for example, if the servers call
-XPAPoll() with a time limit, and send messages in between the polling call.
-
-
-By default, this option is turned off, because we judge that the added
-code complication and overhead involved will not be justified by the
-amount of its use.  Moreover, processing XPA requests within socket IO
-can lead to non-intuitive results, since incoming server requests will
-not necessarily be processed to completion in the order in which they
-are received.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_LOGNAME>
-
-
-XPA preferentially uses the de facto standard environment variable
-LOGNAME to determine the username when registering an access point in
-the name server. If this environment variable has been used for
-something other than the actual user name (such as a log file name),
-unexpected results can ensue. In such cases, use the XPA_LOGNAME
-variable to set the user name. (If neither exists, then getpwuid(geteuid())
-is used as a last resort).
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_LONG_TIMEOUT>
-
-
-XPA is designed to allow data to be sent from one process to
-another over a long period of time (i.e., a program that generates
-image data sends that data to an image display, but slowly) but it
-also seeks to prevent hangs. This is done by supporting 2 timeout
-periods: a I<short> timeout for protocol communication
-and a I<long> for data communication.
-
-The I<XPA_LONG_TIMEOUT> variable controls the I<long>
-timeout and is used to prevent hangs in cases where communication
-between the client and server that is I<not> controlled by the
-XPA interface itself. Transfer of data between client and server, or a
-client's wait for a status message after completion of the server
-callback, are two examples of this sort of communication. By default,
-the I<long> timeout is set to 180 seconds.
-Setting the value to -1 will disable I<long> timeouts and allow
-an infinite amount of time.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_MAXHOSTS>
-
-
-The maximum number of access points that the programs 
-I<xpaset>, I<xpaget>, and I<xpainfo> will
-communicate with at one time. The default is 64, meaning, for
-example, that the I<xpaset> program will not send a message
-to more than 100 access points at one time and I<xpaget> will
-not retrieve from more than 100 access points at one time.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_METHOD>
-
-
-Determines the socket connection method used by this session of XPA.
-The choices are: I<inet> (to use INET or Internet-based
-sockets), I<localhost> (to use the machines localhost inet
-socket), or I<local (unix)> (to use UNIX sockets). The default
-is I<INET>.  Using the I<inet> method will allow access
-from other machines (subject to access controls) but using
-I<localhost> or I<local> will not. Localhost is most useful
-for private access and when the machine in question is not connected
-to the Internet. The unix method also can be used for private access
-and non-Internet connections (Unix platforms only).
-
-Once defined, the first registration of an XPA access point will
-ensure that an instance of the
-XPA Name Server (xpans)
-is running that handles that connection method. All new access points
-will use the new connection method but existing access points will use
-the original method.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_NSINET>
-
-
-For the I<inet> method of socket connection, this variable
-specifies the host and port on which the 
-XPA Name Server (xpans)
-is listens for new access points. The default is I<$host:$port>,
-meaning that the default XPA port (14285) on the current machine
-(as returned by gethostname()) is used. If several machines were all
-accessing the same XPA access points, you would use this variable to
-specify that they all use the same name server to find out about these
-access points.  For example, a value of I<myhost:$port> would
-mean that the xpans name server is running on myhost and uses the
-default port 12345.  All machines would then get the XPA access points
-registered with that name server, subject to access controls.
-
-The port used by xpans to register its XPA access point normally is
-taken to be one greater than the port on which it receives new access
-points from XPA servers. You can specify a specific access point port
-using the syntax machine:port1,port2, i.e., the access point port is
-specified after the comma.  For example, $host:12345,23456 will listen
-for new access ports on 12345 and will accept XPA commands on 23456.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_NSREGISTER>
-
-
-This boolean variable specifies whether a server registers its XPA
-access point with the specified xpans name server. The default is
-I<true>.  If set to I<false>, the access point still is
-set up but it is not registered with xpans and therefore cannot be
-accessed by name. (It can be accessed by method, if the latter is
-known.) Note that an access point can be registered later on (using
--remote or -proxy, for example). This variable mainly is useful in
-cases where the Internet configuration is broken (so that registration
-causes a DNS hang) but you still wish to and can use the server with a
-remote xpans (e.g., ds9's Virtual Observatory capability).
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_NSUNIX>
-
-
-For the I<local> method of socket connection, this variable
-specifies the name of the Unix file that will be used to access the
-XPA Name Server (xpans). The default is
-I<xpans_unix>. This variable is not usually needed. Note that
-is the I<local> socket method is used, then remote machines will
-not be able to access the xpans name server or the registered XPA access
-points.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_NSUSERS>
-
-
-This variable specifies whether other users' access points will be
-returned by the
-XPA Name Server (xpans) for use by
-I<xpaget>, I<xpaset>, etc.
-Generally speaking, it is sufficient to run one xpans name server per
-machine and register the access points for all users with that xpans.
-This means, for example, that if you request information from
-ds9 by running:
-
-  xpaget ds9 colormap
-
-you might get information from your own ds9 as well as
-from another user running ds9 on the same machine.  The
-I<XPA_NSUSERS> variable controls whether you want such access 
-to the access points of other users.
-By default, only your own access points are returned, so
-that, in the example above, you would only get the colormap information
-from the ds9 you registered. If, however, you had set the value of the
-I<XPA_NSUSERS> variable to I<eric,fred>, then you would be
-able to communicate with both eric and fred's access points. Note that
-this variable can be overridden using the I<-u> switch on the
-I<xpaget>, I<xpaset>, and I<xpainfo> programs.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_PORT>
-
-
-A semi-colon delimited list of user specified ports to use for specific
-XPA access points. The format is each specification is:
-
-class:template port1[ port2]
-
-where B<port1> is the main (command) port for the access point and
-B<port2> is the (secondary) data port. If port2 is not specified,
-it defaults to a value of 0 (meaning the system assigns the port).
-
-
-Specification of specific ports is useful, for example, when a machine
-outside a firewall needs to communicate with a machine inside a
-firewall. In such a case, the firewall should be configured to allow
-socket connections to both the command and data port from the outside
-machine, and the inside XPA program should be started up with the
-outside machine in its ACL list. Then, when the inside program is
-started with specified ports, outside XPA programs can use
-"machine:port" to contact the inside access points, instead of the
-access point names. That is, the machine outside the firewall does not
-need access to the XPA name server:
-
-export XPA_PORT="DS9:ds9 12345 12346"   # on machine "inside"
-cat foo.fits | xpaset inside:12345 fits # on machine "outside"
-
-Note that 2 ports are required for full XPA communication and
-therefore 2 ports should be specified to go through a firewall.  The
-second port assignment is not important if you simply are assigning
-the command port in order to communicate commands with a known
-port (e.g., to bypass the xpans name server). If only one (command)
-port is specified, the system will negotiate a random data port and
-everything will work properly.
-
-
-This support is somewhat experimental. If you run into problems, please
-let us know.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_PORTFILE>
-
-
-A list of user-specified port to use for specific xpa access points.
-The format of the file is:
-
-class:template port1 [port2]
-
-where B<port1> is the main port for the access point and
-B<port2> is the data port. If port2 is not specified, it defaults
-to a value of 0 (meaning the system assigns the port).  See
-B<XPA_PORT> above for an explanation of user-specified ports.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_SHORT_TIMEOUT>
-
-
-XPA is designed to allow data to be sent from one process to
-another over a long period of time (i.e., a program that generates
-image data sends that data to an image display, but slowly) but it
-also seeks to prevent hangs. This is done by supporting 2 timeout
-periods: a I<short> timeout for protocol communication
-and a I<long> for data communication.
-
-The I<XPA_SHORT_TIMEOUT> variable
-controls the I<short> timeout and is used to prevent hangs
-in cases where the XPA protocol requires internal communication between
-the client and server that is controlled by the XPA interface
-itself. Authentication is an example of this sort of communication,
-as is the establishment of a data channel between the two processes.
-The default value for the I<short> is 30 seconds (which is
-a pretty long time, actually). Setting the value to -1 will disable
-I<short> timeouts and allow an infinite amount of time.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_SIGUSR1>
-
-
-If the value of this variable is I<true>, then XPA will
-catch SIGUSR1 signals when performing an I/O operation in order to
-curtail that operation. This facility allows users to send a SIGUSR1
-signal to an XPA server if a client is hanging up the server by
-sending or receiving data too slowly (timeouts also can be used -- see
-above). When enabled in this way, the SIGUSR1 signal is ignored at all other
-times, so that its safe to send the signal at any time.  If the
-variable is set to I<false>, then SIGUSR1 is not used at
-all. Turning off SIGUSR1 would be desired in cases there the program
-uses SIGUSR1 for some other reason and does not want XPA interfering.
-The default is to use the signal.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_TIMESTAMP_ERRORS>
-
-
-If I<XPA_TIMESTAMP_ERRORS> is I<true>, then error
-messages will include a date/time string.  This can be useful when
-XPA errors are being saved in an error log (e.g. Web/CGI use). The
-default is false.
-
-
-=back
-
-
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_TMPDIR>
-
-
-This variable specifies the directory into which XPA logs, Unix
-socket files (when I<XPA_METHOD> is I<local>), etc. are
-stored. The default is I</tmp/.xpa>.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_VERBOSITY>
-
-
-Specify the verbosity level of error messages. If the value is
-set to I<0>, I<false>, or I<off>, then no error
-messages are printed to stderr.  If the value is I<1>, then
-important XPA error messages will be output.  If the value is
-set to I<2>, XPA warnings about out-of-sync messages will also
-be output.  These latter almost always can be ignored.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<XPA_VERSIONCHECK>
-
-
-Specify whether a new access point should check its major and minor XPA
-version number against the version used by the xpans name server at
-registration time. The default is I<true>. When checking is
-performed, a warning is issued if the server major version is found to
-be greater than the xpans version. Note that the check is performed
-both by the XPA server and by the xpans process and warnings will be
-issued by each.  Also, instead of the values of I<true> or
-I<false>, you can give this variable an integer value n. In this
-case, each version checking process (i.e., the XPA-enabled server or
-xpans) will print out a maximum of n warning messages (after which
-version warnings are silently swallowed).
-
-In general, it is a bad idea to run an XPA-enabled server program
-using a version of XPA newer than the basic xpaset, xpaget, xpaaccess,
-xpans programs. This sort of mismatch usually will not work due to
-protocol changes.

-
-B<XPAGetFd: retrieve data from one or more XPA servers and write to files>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  int XPAGetFd(XPA xpa,
-               char *template, char *paramlist, char *mode,
-	       int *fds, char **names, char **messages, int n);
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-Retrieve data from one or more XPA servers whose class:name identifier
-matches the specified
-template
-and write it to files associated with
-one or more standard I/O fds (i.e, handles returned by open()).
-
-
-A 
-template
-of the form "class1:name1" is sent to the
-XPA name server, which returns a list of at most ABS(n) matching XPA
-servers.  A connection is established with each of these servers and
-the paramlist string is passed to the server as the data transfer
-request is initiated. If an XPA struct is passed to the call, then the
-persistent connections are updated as described above. Otherwise,
-temporary connections are made to the servers (which will be closed
-when the call completes).
-
-
-The XPAGetFd() routine then retrieves data from the XPA servers,
-and write these data to the fds associated with one or more fds
-(i.e., results from open). Is n is positive, then there will be n fds
-and the data from each server will be sent to a separate fd. If n is
-negative, then there is only 1 fd and all data is sent to this single
-fd. (The latter is how xpaget is implemented.)
-
-
-A string containing the class:name and ip:port is stored in the name
-array.  If a given server returned an error or the server callback
-sends a message back to the client, then the message will be stored in
-the associated element of the messages array.  NB: if specified, the
-name and messages arrays must be of size n or greater.
-
-
-The returned message string will be of the form:
-
-  XPA$ERROR   error-message (class:name ip:port)
-
-or
-
-  XPA$MESSAGE message 	  (class:name ip:port)
-
-
-Note that when there is an error stored in an messages entry, the
-corresponding bufs and lens entry may or may not be NULL and 0
-(respectively), depending on the particularities of the server.
-
-
-The return value will contain the actual number of servers that were
-processed.  This value thus will hold the number of valid entries in
-the bufs, lens, names, and messages arrays, and can be used to loop
-through these arrays.  In names and/or messages is NULL, no information is
-passed back in that array.
-
-
-The mode string is of the form: "key1=value1,key2=value2,..."
-The following keywords are recognized:
-
-  key   	value		default		explanation
-  ------	--------	--------	-----------
-  ack		true/false	true		if false, don't wait for ack from server (after callback completes)
-
-
-The ack keyword is not very useful, since the server completes the callback
-in order to return the data anyway.  It is here for completion (and perhaps
-for future usefulness).
-					   
-
-B<Example:>
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-  #define NXPA 10
-  int  i, got;
-  int fds[NXPA];
-  char *names[NXPA];
-  char *messages[NXPA];
-  for(i=0; i<NXPA; i++)
-    fds[i] = open(...);
-  got = XPAGetFd(NULL, "ds9", "file", NULL, fds, names, messages, NXPA);
-  for(i=0; i<got; i++){

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPAInet: XPA Communication Between Hosts>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-XPA uses standard inet sockets to support communication between two or
-more host computers.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-When the Communication Method is set to
-B<inet> (as it is by default), XPA can be used to communicate
-between different computers on the Internet.  INET sockets utilize the
-IP address of the given machine and a (usually random) port number to
-communicate between processes on the same machine or between different
-machines on the Internet.  These standard Internet sockets are also
-used by programs such as Netscape, ftp. etc.
-
-
-XPA supports a host-based Access Control mechanism
-to prevent unauthorized access of XPA access points by other computers
-on the Net.  By default, only the machine on which the XPA server is
-running can access XPA services. Therefore, setting up communication
-between a local XPA server machine and a remote client machine
-requires a two-part registration process:
-
-
-
-=over 4
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-the XPA service on the local machine must be made known to the 
-remote machine
-
-
-=item *
-
-the remote machine must be given permission to access the local
-XPA service
-
-
-=back
-
-
-
-Three methods by which this remote registration can be accomplished
-are described below.
-
-B<Manual Registration>
-
-The first method is the most basic and does not require the remote
-client to have xpans running.  To use it, the local server simply
-gives a remote client machine access to one or more XPA access points
-using xpaset and the B<-acl> sub-command. For example,
-consider the XPA test program "stest" running on a local machine.  By
-default the access control for the access point named "xpa" is
-restricted to that machine:
-
-  [sh]$ xpaget xpa -acl
-  *:* 123.456.78.910 gisa
-  *:* localhost gisa
-
-Using xpaset and the B<-acl> sub-command, a remote client
-machine can be given permission to perform xpaget, xpaset, xpaaccess,
-or xpainfo operations.  For example, to allow the xpaget operation, the
-following command can be issued on the local machine:
-
-  [sh]$ xpaset -p xpa -acl "remote_machine g"
-
-This results in the following access permissions on the local machine:
-
-  [sh]$ xpaget xpa -acl
-  XPA:xpa 234.567.89.012 g
-  *:* 123.456.78.910 gisa
-  *:* localhost gisa
-
-
-The remote client can now use the local server's xpans name server to
-establish communication with the local XPA service. This can be done
-on a call-by-call basis using the B<-i> switch on xpaset, xpaget, etc:
-
-  [sh]$ xpaget -i "local_machine:12345" xpa
-  class: XPA
-  name: xpa
-  method: 88877766:2778
-  sendian: little
-  cendian: big
-
-Alternatively, the XPA_NSINET variable on the remote machine can be
-set to point directly to xpans on the local machine, removing
-the need to override this value each time an XPA program is run:
-
-  [csh]$ setenv XPA_NSINET 'karapet:$port'
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpa
-  class: XPA
-  name: xpa
-  method: 88877766:2778
-  sendian: little
-  cendian: big
-
-Here, '$port' means to use the default XPA name service port (14285).
-not a port environment variable.
-
-
-Access permission for remote client machines can be stored in a file
-on the local machine pointed to by the B<XPA_ACLFILE> environment
-variable or using the B<XPA_DEFACL> environment variable. See <A
-HREF="./acl.html">XPA Access Control for more information.
-
-B<Remote Registration>
-
-If xpans is running on the remote client machine, then a local xpaset
-command can be used with the B<-remote> sub-command to
-register the local XPA service in the remote name service, while at
-the same time giving the remote machine permission to access the local
-service.  For example, assume again that "stest" is running on the
-local machine and that xpans is also running on the remote machine.
-To register access of this local xpa on the remote machine, use 
-the xpaset and the B<-remote> sub-command:
-
-  [sh]$ ./xpaset -p xpa -remote 'remote_machine:$port' +
-
-To register the local xpa access point on the remote machine with xpaget
-access only, execute:
-
-  [sh]$ ./xpaset -p xpa -remote 'remote_machine:$port' g
-
-Once the remote registration command is executed, the remote client
-machine will have an entry such as the following in its own xpans name
-service:
-
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpans
-  XPA xpa gs 88877766:2839 eric
-
-The xpa access point can now be utilized on the remote machine without
-further setup:
-
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpa
-  class: XPA
-  name: xpa
-  method: 838e2f68:2839
-  sendian: little
-  cendian: big
-
-To unregister remote access from the local machine, use the same
-command but with a '-' argument:
-
-  [sh]$ xpaset -p xpa -remote 'remote_machine:$port' -
-
-The benefit of using remote registration is that communication with
-remote access points can be mixed with that of other access points
-on the remote machine.  Using Access Point
-Names and Templates, one XPA command can be used to send or
-receive messages to the remote and local services.
-
-B<XPANS Proxy Registration>
-
-The two methods described above are useful when the local and remote
-machines are able to communicate freely to one another. This would be
-the case on most Local Area Networks (LANs) where all machines are
-behind the same firewall and there is no port blocking between
-machines on the same LAN.  The situation is more complicated when the
-XPA server is behind a firewall, where outgoing connections are
-allowed, but incoming port blocking is implemented to prevent machines
-outside the firewall from connecting to machines inside the
-firewall. Such incoming port blocking will prevent xpaset and xpaget
-from connecting to an XPA server inside a firewall.
-
-
-To allow locally fire-walled XPA services to register with remote
-machines, we have implemented a proxy service within the xpans name
-server. To register remote proxy service, xpaset and the
-B<-remote> sub-command is again used, but with an additional
-B<-proxy> argument added to the end of the command:
-
-  [sh]$ ./xpaset -p xpa -remote 'remote_machine:$port' g -proxy
-
-Once a remote proxy registration command is executed, the remote
-machine will have an entry such as the following in its own xpans name
-service:
-
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpans
-  XPA xpa gs @88877766:2839 eric
-
-The '@' sign in the name service entry indicates that xpans proxy
-processing is being used for this access point. Other than that, from
-the user's point of view, there is no difference in how this XPA
-access point is contacted using XPA programs (xpaset, xpaget, etc.) or
-libraries:
-
-  [csh]$ xpaget xpa
-  class: XPA
-  name: xpa
-  method: 88877766:3053
-  sendian: little
-  cendian: big
-
-
-Of course, the underlying processing of the XPA requests is very much
-different when xpans proxy is involved. Instead of an XPA program such
-contacting the XPA service directly, it contacts the local xpans.
-Acting as a proxy server, xpans communicates with the XPA service
-using the command channel established at registration time. Commands
-(including establishing a new data channel) are sent between xpans and
-the XPA service to set up a new message transfer, and then data is fed
-to/from the xpa request, through xpans, from/to the XPA service. In
-this way, it can be arranged so that connections between the
-fire-walled XPA service and the remote client are always initiated by
-the XPA service itself. Thus, incoming connections that would be
-blocked by the firewall are avoided. Note that there is a performance
-penalty for using the xpans/proxy service.  Aside from extra overhead
-to set up proxy communication, all data must be sent through the
-intermediate proxy process.
-
-
-The xpans proxy scheme requires that the remote client allow the local
-XPA server machine to connect to the remote xpans/proxy server. If the
-remote client machine also is behind a port-blocking firewall, such
-connections will be disallowed. In this case, the only solution is to
-open up some ports on the remote client machine to allow incoming
-connections to xpans/proxy. Two ports must be opened (for command and
-data channel connections). By default, these two ports are 14285 and
-14287. The port numbers can be changed using the B<XPA_NSINET>
-environment variable. This variable takes the form:
-
-  setenv XPA_NSINET machine:port1[,port2[,port3]]
-
-where port1 is the main connecting port, port2 is the XPA access port,
-and port3 is the secondary data connecting port. The second and third
-ports are optional and default to port1+1 and port1+2, respectively.
-It is port1 and port3 that must be left open for incoming connections.
-
-
-For example, to change the port assignments so that xpans listens
-for registration commands on port 12345 and data commands on port 28573:
-
-  setenv XPA_NSINET myhost:12345
-
-Alternatively, all three ports can be assigned explicitly:
-
-  setenv XPA_NSINET remote:12345,3000,12346
-
-In this case 12345 and 12346 should be open for incoming connections.
-The XPA access port (which need not be open to the outside
-world) is set to 3000.
-
-
-Finally, note that we currently have no mechanism to cope with
-Internet proxy servers (such as SOCKS servers). If an XPA service is
-running on a machine that cannot connect directly to outside machines,
-but goes through a proxy server instead, there currently is no way to
-register that XPA service with a remote machine.  We hope to implement
-support for SOCKS proxy in a future release.

-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  XPA XPAInfoNew(char *class, char *name,
-	         int (*info_callback)(),
-		 void *info_data, char *info_mode);
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-[NB: this is an experimental interface, new to XPA 2.0, whose value
-and best use is evolving.]
-
-
-A program can register interest in receiving a short message about a
-particular topic from any other process that cares to send such a
-message.  Neither has to be an XPA server.  For example, if a user
-starts to work with a new image file called new.fits, she might
-wish to alert interested programs about this new file by sending a
-short message using xpainfo:
-
-  xpainfo IMAGEFILE /data/new.fits
-
-
-
-In this example, each process that has used the XPAInfoNew() call to
-register interest in messages associated with the identifier IMAGEFILE
-will have its info_callback() executed with the following calling
-sequence:
-
-  int info_cb(void *info_data, void *call_data, char *paramlist)
-  {
-    XPA xpa = (XPA)call_data;
-  }
-
-
-The arguments passed to this routine are equivalent to those sent in
-the send_callback() routine.  The main difference is that there is no
-buf sent to the info callback: this mechanism is meant for short
-announcement of messages of interest to many clients.
-
-
-The mode string is of the form: "key1=value1,key2=value2,..."
-The following keywords are recognized:
-
-  key   	value		default		explanation
-  ------	--------	--------	-----------
-  acl		true/false	true		enable access control
-
-
-Because no buf is passed to this callback, the usual buf-related keywords
-are not applicable here.
-
-
-The information sent in the parameter list is arbitrary.  However, we
-envision sending information such as file names or XPA access points
-from which to collect more data.  Note that the xpainfo program and
-the XPAInfo() routine that cause the info_callback to execute do not
-wait for the callback to complete before returning.

-B<XPAIntro: Introduction to the XPA Messaging System>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-A brief introduction to the XPA messaging system, which provides
-seamless communication between all kinds of Unix event-driven
-programs, including X programs, Tcl/Tk programs, and Perl programs.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-The XPA messaging system provides seamless communication between all
-kinds of Unix programs, including X programs, Tcl/Tk programs, and
-Perl programs.  It also provides an easy way for users to communicate
-with these XPA-enabled programs by executing XPA client commands in
-the shell or by utilizing such commands in scripts.  Because XPA works
-both at the programming level and the shell level, it is a powerful
-tool for unifying any analysis environment: users and programmers have
-great flexibility in choosing the best level or levels at which to
-access XPA services, and client access can be extended or modified
-easily at any time.
-
-
-A program becomes an XPA-enabled server by defining named points of
-public access through which data and commands can be exchanged with
-other client programs (and users).  Using standard TCP sockets as
-a transport mechanism, XPA supports both single-point and broadcast
-messaging to and from these servers.  It supports direct communication
-between clients and servers, or indirect communication via an
-intermediate message bus emulation program. Host-based access control
-is implemented, as is as the ability to communicate with XPA servers
-across a network.
-
-
-XPA implements a layered interface that is designed to be useful both
-to software developers and to users.  The interface consists of a
-library of XPA client and server routines for use in programs and a
-suite of high-level user programs built on top of these libraries.
-Using the XPA library, access points can be added to
-Tcl/Tk
-programs, 
-Xt
-programs, or to Unix programs that use the XPA event loop or any
-event loop based on select().  Client access subroutines can be added
-to any Tcl/Tk or Unix program. Client access also is supported at the
-command line via a suite of high-level programs. 
-
-
-The major components of the XPA layered interface are:
-
-
-=over 4
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-A set of XPA server routines, centered on 
-XPANew(),
-which are used by XPA server programs to tag public access points with
-string identifiers and to register send and receive callbacks for
-these access points.
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-A set of XPA client routines, centered on the 
-XPASet()
-and
-XPAGet(),
-which are used by external client applications to exchange data and
-commands with an XPA server.
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-High-level programs, centered on
-xpaset
-and
-xpaget,
-which allow data
-and information to be exchanged with XPA server programs from the
-command line and from scripts.  These programs have the command syntax:
-
-  [data] | xpaset  [qualifiers ...]
-           xpaget  [qualifiers ...]
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-An XPA name server program, 
-xpans,
-through which XPA access point names are
-registered by servers and distributed to clients.
-
-
-=back
-
-
-
-
-Defining an XPA access point is easy: a server application calls
-XPANew(),
-XPACmdNew(),
-or the experimental
-XPAInfoNew()
-routine to
-create a named public access point.  An XPA service can specify "send"
-and "receive" callback procedures (or an "info" procedure in the case
-of XPAInfoNew()) to be executed by the program when an external
-process either sends data or commands to this access point or requests
-data or information from this access point.  Either of the callbacks
-can be omitted, so that a particular access point can be specified as
-read-only, read-write, or write-only.  Application-specific client
-data can be associated with these callbacks.  Having defined one or
-more public access points in this way, an XPA server program enters
-its usual event loop (or uses the standard XPA event loop).
-
-
-Clients communicate with these XPA public access points
-using programs such as
-xpaget,
-xpaset, and
-xpainfo
-(at the command line),
-or routines such as
-XPAGet(),
-XPASet(),
-and
-XPAInfo()
-within a program.  Both methods require specification of the name of
-the access point.  The xpaget program returns data or other
-information from an XPA server to its standard output, while the
-xpaset program sends data or commands from its standard input to an
-XPA application. The corresponding API routines set/get data to/from
-memory, returning error messages and other info as needed.  If a
-template
-is used to specify the access point name (e.g., "ds9*"), then
-communication will take place with all servers matching that template.
-
-
-Please note that XPA currently is not thread-safe. All XPA calls must be
-in the same thread.

-
-
-B<XPA Server Callback Macros>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  xpa_class, xpa_name, xpa_method, xpa_cmdfd, xpa_datafd,
-  xpa_sendian, xpa_cendian
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-Server routines have  access to information about the XPA being called via
-the following macros (each of which takes the xpa handle as an argument):
-
-  macro		 	explanation
-  ------		-----------
-  xpa_class		class of this xpa
-  xpa_name		name of this xpa
-  xpa_method		method string (inet or local connect info)
-  xpa_cmdfd		fd of command socket
-  xpa_datafd		fd of data socket
-  xpa_sendian		endian-ness of server ("little" or "big")
-  xpa_cendian		endian-ness of client ("little" or "big"
-
-
-The argument to these macros is the call_data pointer that is passed
-to the server procedure.  This pointer should be type case to XPA
-in the server routine:
-
-  XPA xpa = (XPA)call_data;
-
-
-
-The most important of these macros is xpa_datafd().  A server routine
-that sets "fillbuf=false" in receive_mode or send_mode can use this
-macro to perform I/O directly to/from the client, rather than using
-buf.
-
-
-The xpa_cendian and xpa_sendian macros can be used together to determine
-if the data transferred from the client is byte swapped with respect
-to the server. Values for these macros are: "little", "big", or "?".
-In order to do a proper conversion, you still need to know the format
-of the data (i.e., byte swapping is dependent on the size of the data
-element being converted).

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPAMainLoop: optional main loop for XPA>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  void XPAMainLoop();
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-Once XPA access points have been defined, a program must enter an
-event loop to watch for requests from external programs. This can be
-done in a variety of ways, depending on whether the event loop is
-processing events other than XPA events.  In cases where there are no
-non-XPA events to be processed, the program can simply call the
-XPAMainLoop() event loop.  This loop is implemented essentially as
-follows (error checking is simplified in this example):
-
-  FD_ZERO(&readfds);
-  while( XPAAddSelect(NULL, &readfds) ){
-    if( sgot = select(swidth, &readfds, NULL, NULL, NULL) >0 )
-      XPAProcessSelect(&readfds, 0);
-    else
-      break;
-    FD_ZERO(&readfds);
-  }
-
-
-The XPAAddSelect() routine sets up the select() readfds variable so
-that select() will wait for I/O on all the active XPA channels.  It
-returns the number of XPAs that are active; the loop will end when
-there are no active XPAs. The standard select() routine is called to
-wait for an external I/O request.  Since no timeout struct is passed
-in argument 5, the select() call hangs until there is an external
-request.  When an external I/O request is made, the XPAProcessSelect()
-routine is executed to process the pending requests.  In this routine,
-the maxreq value determines how many requests will be processed: if
-maxreq <=0, then all currently pending requests will be processed.
-Otherwise, up to maxreq requests will be processed.  (The most usual
-values for maxreq is 0 to process all requests.)
-
-
-If a program has its own Unix select() loop, then XPA access points can
-be added to it by using a variation of the standard XPAMainLoop:
-
-  XPAAddSelect(xpa, &readfds);
-  [app-specific ...]
-  if( select(width, &readfds, ...) ){
-    XPAProcessSelect(&readfds, maxreq);
-    [app-specific ...]
-    FD_ZERO(&readfds);
-  }
-
-
-XPAAddSelect() is called before select() to add the access points.
-If the first argument is NULL, then all active XPA access points
-are added. Otherwise only the specified access point is added.
-After select() is called, the XPAProcessSelect() routine can be called
-to process XPA requests.  Once again, the maxreq value determines how
-many requests will be processed: if maxreq <=0, then all currently
-pending requests will be processed.  Otherwise, up to maxreq requests
-will be processed.
-
-
-XPA access points can be added to
-Xt event loops (using XtAppMainLoop())
-and
-Tcl/Tk event loops (using vwait and the Tk loop).
-When using XPA with these event loops, you only need to call:
-
-int XPAXtAddInput(XtAppContext app, XPA xpa)
-
-or
-
-  int XPATclAddInput(XPA xpa)
-
-respectively before entering the loop.

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<xpamb: the XPA Message Bus>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-The xpamb program can act as a "classical" message bus interface
-between clients and servers. A client can send a data request to
-the message bus, which then interfaces with multiple servers and
-returns the data back to the client.
-
-
-
-=head1 OPTIONS
-
-
-
-
-
-For xpaset, several optional switches are used to save data and
-manipulate the stored data:
-
-
-=over 4
-
-
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-data [name]>
-
-
-Add the supplied data buffer to a pool of stored data buffers,
-using the specified name as a unique identifier for later retrieval.
-An error occurs if the name already exists (use either B<replace>
-or B<del> to rectify this). The B<-add> switch is supported
-for backwards compatibility with xpa 2.0.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-replace [name]>
-
-
-Replace previously existing stored data having the same unique name
-with new data. This essentially is a combination of the B<del>
-and B<data> commands.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-info ["'info string'"]>
-
-
-When adding a data buffer, you can specify an informational
-string to be stored with that data.  This string will be returned
-by xpaget:
-
-  xpaget xpamb foo -info
-
-(along with other information such as the date/time of storage and the size of
-the data buffer) if the -info switch is specified. If the info string contains
-spaces, you must enclose it in B<two> sets of quotes:
-
-  cat foo | xpaset xpamb -data foo -info "'this is info on foo'"
-
-The first set of quotes is removed by the shell while the second is used to
-delineate the info string.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-send [name]>
-
-
-Broadcast the stored data buffer to the named template.
-
-
-
-
-=item *
-
-B<-del [name]>
-
-
-Delete the named data buffer and free all allocated space.
-
-
-=back
-
-
-
-
-Switches can be used in any combination that makes sense. For example:
-
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset xpamb -data foo -info "FITS" "DS9:*" fits foo.fits
-
-will broadcast the foo.fits image to all access points of class
-B<DS9>.  In addition, the foo.fits file will be stored under the
-name of B<foo> for later manipulation such as:
-
-  xpaset -p xpamb -send foo "DS9:*" fits foo.fits
-
-will re-broadcast the foo.fits image to all access points of class "DS9".
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-A "classical" message bus (such as ToolTalk) consists of servers and
-clients, along with a mediating program that transfers data between
-different processes. XPA takes a slightly different approach in that
-communication between clients and servers is direct.  This generally
-is the correct technique when there is only one connection (or even a
-small number of connections), but can become inefficient for the
-serving program if a large amount of data is being transferred to many
-clients. For example, if a real-time data acquisition program is
-broadcasting a FITS image to several clients, it would need to
-transmit that image to each client individually.  This might interfere
-with its own processing cycles.  The preferable mechanism would be to
-pass the image off to an intermediate program that can then broadcast
-the data to the several clients.
-
-The B<xpamb> program can alleviate such problems by functioning
-as a message bus in cases where such an intermediary process is
-wanted.  It pre-defines a single access point named
-B<XPAMB:xpamb> to which data can be sent for re-broadcast. You
-also can tell B<xpamb> to save the data, and associate with that
-data a new access point, so that it can be retrieved later on.
-
-
-All interaction with B<xpamb> is performed through
-B<xpaset> and B<xpaget> (or the corresponding API
-routines, B<XPASet()> and B<XPAGet()>) to the
-B<XPAMB:xpamb> access point. That is, B<xpamb> is just
-another XPA-enabled program that responds to requests from
-clients. The paramlist is used to specify the targets to which
-the data will be for re-broadcast, as well as the re-broadcast paramlist:
-
-  data | xpaset xpamb [switches] broadcast-target broadcast-paramlist
-
-Optional switches are used to store data, and manipulate stored data,
-and are described below.
-
-
-In its simplest form, you can, for example, send a FITS image to xpamb for
-broadcasting to all ds9 image simply by executing:
-
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset xpamb "DS9:*" fits foo.fits
-
-Since B<DS9> is the class name for the ds9 image display
-program, this will result in the FITS image being re-sent to all fits
-access points for all active image display programs.
-
-
-You can send stored data and new data to the same set of access points at
-the same time.  The stored data always is sent first, followed by the new
-data:
-
-  cat foo2.fits | xpaset xpamb -send foo "DS9:*" fits foo.fits
-
-will first send the foo.fits file, and then the foo2.fits file to all
-access points of class B<DS9>.  Notice that in this example,
-the foo2.fits file is not stored, but it could be stored by using the
-B<-store [name]> switch on the command line.
-
-
-The B<xpaget> command can be used to retrieve a data from XPA
-access points or from a stored data buffer, or retrieve information
-about a stored data buffer.  If no arguments are given:
-
-  xpaget xpamb
-
-then information about all currently stored data buffers is returned. This
-information includes the data and time at which the data was stored, the
-size in bytes of the data, and the supplied info string.
-
-
-If arguments are specified, they will be in the form:
-
-  xpaget xpamb [-info] [-data] [name [paramlist]]
-
-If the optional B<-info> and/or B<-data> switches are specified, then
-information and/or data will be returned for the named data buffer
-following the switches. You can use either or both of these switches
-in a single command. For example, if the -info switch is used:
-
-  xpaget xpamb -info foo
-
-then the info about that stored data buffer will be returned.
-If the -data is used with a specific name:
-
-  xpaget xpamb -data foo
-
-then the stored data itself will be returned. If both are used:
-
-  xpaget xpamb -info -data foo
-
-then the info will be returned, followed by the data. Note that it is an
-error to specify one of these switches without a data buffer name and that
-the paramlist will be ignored.
-
-
-If neither the B<-info> or B<-data> switch is specified, then
-the name refers to an XPA access point (with an optional paramlist
-following).
-For example:
-
-  xpaget xpamb ds9 file
-
-is equivalent to:
-
-  xpaget ds9 file

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPAMethod: XPA Communication Methods>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-XPA supports both inet and unix (local) socket communication.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-XPA uses sockets for communication between processes. It supports
-three methods of socket communication: inet, localhost, and unix. In
-general, the same method should be employed for all XPA processes in a
-session and the global environment variable XPA_METHOD should be used
-to set up the desired method. By default, the preferred method is
-"inet", which is appropriate for most users. You can set up a
-different method by typing something like:
-
-  setenv XPA_METHOD local              # unix csh
-  XPA_METHOD=local; export XPA_METHOD  # unix sh, bash, windows/cygwin
-  set XPA_METHOD=localhost             # dos/windows
-
-The options for XPA_METHOD are: B<inet>, B<unix> (or
-B<local>), and B<localhost>. On Unix machines, this
-environment setup command can be placed in your shell init file
-(.cshrc, .profile, .bashrc, etc.) On Windows platforms, it can be
-placed in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file (I think!).
-
-
-By default, B<inet> sockets are used by XPA. These are the standard
-Internet sockets that are used by programs such as Netscape,
-ftp. etc. Inet sockets utilize the IP address of the given machine and
-a (usually random) port number to communicate between processes on the
-same machine or between different machines on the Internet. (Note that
-XPA has an Access Control mechanism to
-prevent unauthorized access of XPA access points by other computers on
-the Net). For users connected to the Internet, this usually is the
-appropriate communication method. For more information about setting
-up XPA communication between machines, see
-Communication Between Machines.
-
-
-In you are using XPA on a machine without an Internet connection, then
-inet sockets are not appropriate. In fact, an XPA process often will
-hang for many seconds while waiting for a response from the Domain
-Name Service (DNS) when using inet sockets. Instead of inet sockets,
-users on Unix platforms can also use B<unix> sockets (also known
-as local sockets). These sockets are based on the local file system
-and do not make use of the DNS. They generally are considered to be
-faster than inet sockets, but they are not implemented under
-Windows. Use local sockets as a first resort if you are on a Unix
-machine that is not connected to the Internet.
-
-
-Users not connected to the Internet also can use B<localhost>
-sockets. These are also inet-type sockets but the IP address used for
-the local machine is the B<localhost> address, 0x7F000001, instead
-of the real IP of the machine. Depending on how sockets are set up for
-a given platform, communication with the DNS usually is not required in
-this case (though of course, XPA cannot interact with other machines).
-The localhost method will generally work on both Unix and Windows
-platforms, but whether the DNS is required or not is subject to
-individual configurations.
-
-
-A final warning/reminder: if your XPA-enabled server hangs at startup
-time and your XPA_METHOD is B<inet>, the problem probably is
-related to an incorrect Internet configuration. This can be confirmed
-by using the B<unix> method or (usually) the B<localhost>
-method. You can use these alternate methods if other hosts do not need
-access to the XPA server.

-B<XPAName: What does XPA stand for?>
-

-
-
-
-
-What does XPA stand for? Who knows anymore!
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-What does XPA stand for? Dunno! The XPA messaging system originally
-was built on top of the X Window System and XPA was the mnemonic for
-I<X Public Access>, to emphasize that we were providing public
-access to previously private data and algorithms in Xt programs.  Now
-that XPA no longer is tied to X, it can be argued that we ought to
-change the name (how about SPAM: simple public access mechanism
-), but XPA is in wide-spread use in the astronomical community of
-its birth, and the name has taken on a life of its own. If anyone can
-think of what XPA now means, please let us know.
-
-
-If you think this is bad, consider the MMT Telescope on Mount Hopkins,
-Arizona. When first installed twenty years ago, it featured an array
-of six 72-inch diameter mirrors. from which came its name: the
-I<Multiple Mirror Telescope>.  In spring of 1999, these mirrors
-were replaced by a single 21 and 1/2 -foot diameter primary mirror,
-the largest single-piece glass reflector on the North American
-continent. And now MMT stands for ... MMT!

-B<XPANew: create a new XPA access point>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  XPA XPANew(char *class, char *name, char *help,
-	     int (*send_callback)(),
-	     void *send_data, char *send_mode,
-	     int (*rec_callback)(),
-	     void *rec_data,  char *rec_mode);
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-Create a new XPA public access point with the class:name
-identifier template
-and enter this access point into the XPA name server, so that it
-can be accessed by external processes. XPANew() returns an XPA struct.
-Note that the length of the class and name designations must be less
-than or equal to 1024 characters each.
-
-
-The XPA name server daemon, xpans, will be started automatically if it
-is not running already (assuming it can be found in the path).  The
-program's ip address and listening port are specified by the
-environment variable XPA_NSINET, which takes the form :.  If
-no such environment variable exists, then xpans is started on the
-current machine listening on port 14285.  It also uses 14286 as a
-known port for its public access point (so that routines do not have
-to go to the name server to find the name server ip and port!)
-As of XPA 2.1.1, version information is exchanged between the xpans
-process and the new access point. If the access point uses an XPA
-major/minor version newer than xpans, a warning is issued by both processes,
-since mixing of new servers and old xpa programs (xpaset, xpaget,
-xpans, etc.) is not likely to work. You can turn off the warning
-message by setting the XPA_VERSIONCHECK environment variable to "false".
-
-
-The help string is meant to be returned by a request from xpaget:
-
-  xpaget class:name -help
-
-
-A send_callback and/or a receive_callback can be specified; at
-least one of them must be specified.
-
-
-A send_callback can be specified that will be executed in response to
-an external request from the xpaget program, the XPAGet() routine, or
-XPAGetFd() routine. This callback is used to send data to the
-requesting client.
-
-
-The calling sequence for send_callback() is:
-
-  int send_callback(void *send_data, void *call_data,
-    char *paramlist, char **buf, size_t *len)
-  {
-    XPA xpa = (XPA)call_data;
-    ...
-    return(stat);
-  }
-
-
-The send_mode string is of the form: "key1=value1,key2=value2,..."
-The following keywords are recognized:
-
-  key   	value		default		explanation
-  ------	--------	--------	-----------
-  acl		true/false	true		enable access control
-  freebuf	true/false	true		free buf after callback completes
-
-
-The call_data should be recast to the XPA struct as shown.  In
-addition, client-specific data can be passed to the callback in
-send_data.
-
-
-The paramlist will be supplied by the client as qualifying parameters
-for the callback.  There are two ways in which the send_callback()
-routine can send data back to the client:
-
-
-1. The send_callback() routine can fill in a buffer and pass back a
-pointer to this buffer. An integer len also is returned to specify the
-number of bytes of data in buf.  XPA will send this buffer to the
-client after the callback is complete.
-
-
-2. The send_callback can send data directly to the client by writing
-to the fd pointed by the macro:
-
-  xpa_datafd(xpa)
-
-
-Note that this fd is of the kind returned by socket() or open().
-
-
-If a buf has been allocated by a standard malloc routine, filled, and
-returned to XPA, then freebuf generally is set so that the buffer will
-be freed automatically when the callback is completed and data has
-been sent to the client.  If a static buf is returned, freebuf should
-be set to false to avoid a system error when freeing static storage.
-Note that default value for freebuf implies that the callback will
-allocate a buffer rather than use static storage.
-
-
-On the other hand, if buf is dynamically allocated using a method
-other than a standard malloc/calloc/realloc routine (e.g. using Perl's
-memory allocation and garbage collection scheme), then it is necessary
-to tell XPA how to free the allocated buffer. To do this, use the
-XPASetFree() routine within your callback:
-
-  void XPASetFree(XPA xpa, void (*myfree)(void *), void *myfree_ptr);
-
-The first argument is the usual XPA handle. The second argument is the
-special routine to call to free your allocated memory. The third
-argument is an optional pointer.  If not NULL, the specified free
-routine is called with that pointer as its sole argument. If NULL, the
-free routine is called with the standard buf pointer as its sole
-argument. This is useful in cases where there is a mapping between the
-buffer pointer and the actual allocated memory location, and the
-special routine is expecting to be passed the former.
-
-
-If, while the callback performs its processing, an error occurs that
-should be communicated to the client, then the routine XPAError should be
-called:
-
-  XPAError(XPA xpa, char *s);
-
-
-where s is an arbitrary error message.  The returned error message
-string will be of the form:
-
-  XPA$ERROR   [error] (class:name ip:port)
-
-
-If the callback wants to send a specific acknowledgment message back
-to the client, the routine XPAMessage can be called:
-
-  XPAMessage(XPA xpa, char *s);
-
-
-where s is an arbitrary error message.  The returned error message
-string will be of the form:
-
-  XPA$MESSAGE [message] (class:name ip:port)
-
-
-Otherwise, a standard acknowledgment is sent back to the client
-after the callback is completed.
-
-
-The callback routine should return 0 if no error occurs, or -1 to
-signal an error.
-
-
-A receive_callback can be specified that will be executed in response
-to an external request from the xpaset program, or the XPASet (or
-XPASetFd()) routine. This callback is used to process data received
-from an external process.
-
-
-The calling sequence for receive_callback is:
-
-  int receive_callback(void *receive_data, void *call_data,
-    char *paramlist, char *buf, size_t len)
-  {
-    XPA xpa = (XPA)call_data;
-    ...
-    return(stat);
-  }
-
-
-The mode string is of the form: "key1=value1,key2=value2,..."
-The following keywords are recognized:
-
-  key   	value		default		explanation
-  ------	--------	--------	-----------
-  acl		true/false	true		enable access control
-  buf		true/false	true		server expects data bytes from client
-  fillbuf	true/false	true		read data into buf before executing callback
-  freebuf	true/false	true		free buf after callback completes
-
-
-The call_data should be recast to the XPA struct as shown.  In
-addition, client-specific data can be passed to the callback in
-receive_data.
-
-
-The paramlist will be supplied by the client. In addition, if the
-receive_mode keywords buf and fillbuf are true, then on entry into the
-receive_callback() routine, buf will contain the data sent by the
-client. If buf is true but fillbuf is false, it becomes the callback's
-responsibility to retrieve the data from the client, using the data fd
-pointed to by the macro xpa_datafd(xpa).  If freebuf is true, then buf
-will be freed when the callback is complete.
-
-
-If, while the callback is performing its processing, an error occurs
-that should be communicated to the client, then the routine XPAError
-can be called:
-
-  XPAError(XPA xpa, char *s);
-
-
-where s is an arbitrary error message.
-
-
-The callback routine should return 0 if no error occurs, or -1 to
-signal an error.

-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-The xpans name server is an XPA-enabled program that is used to
-manage the names and ports of XPA access points. It is started
-automatically when an XPA access point is registered. You can access
-the name server using xpaget to get a list of registered access points.
-
-The I<xpans> name server provides a crucial link between XPA
-clients and servers.  When an XPA server defines an access point using
-XPANew(), XPACmdNew(), or XPAInfoNew(), the name of the access point
-is registered in the name service, along with connection information.
-The name server then matches class:name templates passed to it by XPA
-clients with these registered entries, so that the clients can
-communicate with the appropriate servers.
-
-
-The socket connection between an XPA-enabled program and
-I<xpans> is kept open until the former exits (or explicitly
-closes the connection). Apparently, some Internet equipment (e.g. DSL
-modems) can cause such a connection to time-out after a period of
-inactivity. To prevent this from happening, you can use the -k
-[sec] switch to send a short keep-alive message to each open
-connection after the specified time delay. (Note that this
-application level use of keep-alive is necessary only if you are
-serving XPA-enabled clients over the Internet and have to deal with
-long-term connections involving DSL or similar equipment.  XPA uses
-the ordinary socket-level keep-alive, which works for all other cases.)
-NB (12/2/2009): Out-of-band (URG) TCP data, used by xpans
-keep-alive, is changed by some Cisco routers into in-band data.
-Encountering such a router will break the keep-alive function and may
-break your XPA server as well. Proceed with caution!
-
-
-The I<xpans> program will be started automatically (assuming it
-can be found in the user's path) when the first XPA access point is
-registered.  It therefore need not be started explicitly.  However,
-when started automatically, the I<-e> switch is used, so that
-the name server will exit when there are no more XPA access points
-registered. If you wish to keep the name server running continually,
-simply start it manually without the I<-e> switch.
-
-
-The name server will keep a log of registered access points if the
-I<-l [log]> switch is used on the command line (this is the
-case for automatic start-up).  The log contains enough name and connection
-information to allow you to re-register all XPA access points in case
-the name server process is terminated prematurely. For example, after
-the ds9 access point is registered,the log will contain the entry:
-
-  add 838e2f67:1863 ds9 ds9 gs eric
-
-If I<xpans> is terminated but ds9 still is running, you
-can re-register both access points for the ds9 process by running:
-
-  xpaset -p 838e2f67:1863 -nsconnect
-
-Notice that the ip:port specifier is used with I<xpaset> to bypass
-the need for contacting the name server (which does not have the name
-registered yet!)
-
-
-The name server will keep a log of security information if the -s
-[security log] switch is used on the command line. For each
-accepted connection, (including connections via the I<xpaget>
-command), information will be logged about the host issuing the
-command and the parameters passed into the program. This is most
-useful when I<xpans> is accepting connections from untrusted
-machines.
-
-
-When an XPA access point is removed by a server using I<XPAFree()>,
-the access information is removed from the name server.  If an
-XPA-enabled process is terminated, all names registered by that process
-will be removed automatically.  The log file is always updated to
-reflect the currently registered access points.
-
-
-The name server itself has an XPA access point names I<xpans>
-registered through which you can find out information about currently
-registered access points (assuming you have access to the name server;
-see XPA Access Control for more information).
-For each registered access point, the following information is returned:
-
-  class		# class of the access point
-  name		# name of the access point
-  access	# allowed access (g=xpaget,s=xpaset,i=xpainfo)
-  id		# socket access method (host:port for inet, file for local/unix)
-  user		# user name of access point owner
-
-
-
-For example, to display all currently registered access points, simply execute:
-
-  xpaget xpans
-
-Continuing the example of ds9 above, this will return:
-
-  DS9 ds9 gs 838e2f67:1863 eric
-
-If the same program has been started with different XPA access names,
-you can look up only names matching a specified template. For example,
-assume that ds9 has been started up using:
-
-  ds9 &
-  ds9 -title ds9-1-eric &
-  ds9 -title ds9-2-eric &
-
-To lookup all ds9 access points which end in ".eric" and which can
-be accessed using I<xpaset>, use:
-
-  xpaget xpans "DS9:*.eric" "s" "*"
-
-This will return:
-
-  DS9 ds9-2-eric gs 838e29d3:42102 eric
-  DS9 ds9-1-eric gs 838e29d3:42105 eric
-
-The third argument "*" requests all access points from all users.
-You also can specify a specific user name and only access points
-registered by that user will be returned.
-
-
-The name server uses the I<XPA_METHOD> environment variable
-to determine whether it should listen for requests on INET or LOCAL
-sockets.  Since XPA access points also use this environment variable,
-the choice of socket method will be consistent.  Note that, when INET
-sockets are used, a local server can be accessed from remote machines
-if the I<XPA_NSINET> environment variable is set to point to
-the local machine.  See
-XPA Environment Variables
-for more information.
-
-
-An experimental feature of xpans is its ability to act as a proxy to
-XPA servers behind firewalls that want to communicate with external
-processes.  The basic idea is the following: an XPA server (call it
-"foo") on host1, possibly behind a firewall, makes a remote connection
-to a proxy-enabled xpans program on host2 (specifying host2's XPA method).
-For example:
-
-  xpaset -p foo -remote 'host2:28571' + -proxy   # on host1
- 
-When this is done, host2 can use xpaset, xpaget, and xpainfo calls to
-communicate with the XPA server foo. All command communication is
-performed via the xpans socket connection between foo on host1 and
-xpans on host2 (which was initiated by foo from inside the firewall).
-Data communication is similarly performed using a socket connection
-initiated on host1 (usually with a port value two greater than the
-port value of the main xpans socket connection). An xpaset or xpaget
-call on host2 contacts xpans, which performs an XPASet() or XPAGet()
-call to foo, passing commands and data back and forth between the two
-programs.
-
-
-By default, proxy connections are not allowed by xpans. If the -P switch is
-specified with a value of 1, proxy connection are allowed, but all proxy
-communication is performed in the same thread as xpans processing. If
-a value of 2 is specified, the proxy processing is performed in a
-separate thread (assuming pthreads are supported on your system).
-Because xpa callback processing of any type can take a long time and
-therefore can interfere with normal xpans processing, threaded proxy
-connections (-P 2) are recommended.  When using proxy connections, it
-might also be useful to set the XPA_IOCALLSXPA environment variable, so
-that multiple proxy requests can be handled at the same time, instead of
-serially.
-
-
-Note that this proxy interface to xpans is experimental. It is used
-to provide remote data analysis capabilities on the Chandra-Ed system
-using ds9.  (See http://chandra-ed.cfa.harvard.edu and
-http://hea-www.harvard.edu/saord/ds9 for more details). As always, please
-contact us if you have problems or questions.

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPANSLookup: lookup registered XPA access points>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  int XPANSLookup(XPA xpa,
-  	          char *template, char type,
-	          char ***classes, char ***names,
-	          char ***methods, char ***infos)
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-XPA routines act on a class:name identifier in such a way
-that all access points that match the identifier are processed.  It is
-sometimes desirable to choose specific access points from the
-candidates that match the
-template.  In order to do this, the
-XPANSLookup routine can be called to return a list of matches, so that
-specific class:name instances can then be fed to XPAGet(), XPASet(), etc.
-
- The first argument is an optional XPA struct. If non-NULL, the
-existing name server connection associated with the specified xpa is
-used to query the xpans name server for matching templates. Otherwise,
-a new (temporary) connection is established with the name server.
-
-
-The second argument to XPANSLookup is the class:name 
-template
-to match.
-
-
-The third argument for XPANSLookup() is the type of access and can be
-any combination of:
-
-  type   	explanation
-  ------	-----------
-  g		xpaget calls can be made on this access point
-  s		xpaset calls can be made on this access point
-  i		xpainfo calls can be made on this access point
-
-
-The call typically specifies only one of these at a time.
-
-
-The final arguments are pointers to arrays that will be filled
-in and returned by the name server. The name server will allocate and
-return arrays filled with the classes, names, and methods of all XPA
-access points that match the template
-and have the specified type. Also returned are info strings, which
-generally are used internally by the client routines. These can be
-ignored (but the strings must be freed).  The function returns the
-number of matches. The returned value can be used to loop through the
-matches:
-
-B<Example:>
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  char **classes;
-  char **names;
-  char **methods;
-  char **infos;
-  int i, n;
-  n = XPANSLookup(NULL, "foo*", "g", &classes, &names, &methods, &infos);
-  for(i=0; i<n; i++){
-    [more specific checks on possibilities ...]
-    [perhaps a call to XPAGet for those that pass, etc. ...]
-    /* don't forget to free alloc'ed strings when done */
-    free(classes[i]);
-    free(names[i]);
-    free(methods[i]);
-    free(infos[i]);
-  }
-  /* free up arrays alloc'ed by names server */
-  if( n > 0 ){
-    free(classes);
-    free(names);
-    free(methods);
-    free(infos);
-  }
-
-
-The specified 
-template
-also can be a host:port specification, for example:
-
-  myhost:12345
-
-
-In this case, no connection is made to the name server. Instead, the
-call will return one entry such that the ip array contains the ip for
-the specified host and the port array contains the port.  The class
-and name entries are set to the character "?", since the class and
-name of the access point are not known.

-
-
-B<Xpaoom: What happens when XPA runs out of memory?>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-When XPA can't allocate memory, it exits. You can arrange to have it call
-longjmp() instead.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-When an XPA server or client cannot allocate memory, it will attempt to
-output an error message and then exit. If this is not satisfactory (e.g.,
-perhaps your program is interactive and can recover from OOM errors), you
-can tell XPA to call longjmp() to go to a recovery branch. To pass the 
-requisite jmp_buf variable to XPA, make the following call:
-
-  XPASaveJmp(void *env);
-
-The value of env is the address of a jmp_buf variable that was previously 
-passed to setjmp(). For example:
-
-  jmp_buf env;
-  ...
-  if( setjmp(jmp_buf) != 0 ){
-    /* out of memory -- take corrective action, if possible */
-  } else {
-    /* save env for XPA */
-    XPASaveJmp((void *)&jmp_buf);
-  }
-  // enter main loop ...

-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  XPA XPAOpen(char *mode);
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-XPAOpen() allocates a persistent XPA struct that can be used with
-calls to XPAGet(), XPASet(), XPAInfo(), XPAGetFd(), and
-XPASetFd(). Persistence means that a connection to an XPA server is
-not closed when one of the above calls is completed but will be
-re-used on successive calls. Using XPAOpen() therefore saves the time
-it takes to connect to a server, which could be significant with slow
-connections or if there will be a large number of exchanges with a
-given access point.  The mode argument currently is ignored ("reserved
-for future use").
-
-
-An XPA struct is returned if XPAOpen() was successful; otherwise NULL
-is returned. This returned struct can be passed as the first argument
-to XPAGet(), etc.  Those calls will update the list of active XPA
-connections.  Already connected servers (from a previous call) are
-left connected and new servers also will be connected.  Old servers
-(from a previous call) that are no longer needed are disconnected.
-The connected servers will remain connected when the next call to
-XPAGet() is made and connections are once again updated.

-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  int XPAPoll(int msec, int maxreq);
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-It is sometimes desirable to implement a polling loop, i.e., where one
-checks for and processes XPA requests without blocking.  For this
-situation, use the XPAPoll() routine:
-
-  XPAPoll(int msec, int maxreq);
-
-
-The XPAPoll() routine will perform XPAAddSelect() and select(), but with a
-timeout specified in millisecs by the msec argument. If one or more
-XPA requests are made before the timeout expires, the XPAProcessSelect()
-routine is called to process those requests. The maxreq value determines
-how many requests will be processed: if maxreq < 0, then no events are
-processed, but instead, the return value indicates the number of events
-that are pending.  If maxreq == 0, then all currently pending requests
-will be processed.  Otherwise, up to maxreq requests will be processed.
-(The most usual values for maxreq are 0 to process all requests and 1
-to process one request).

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPA Race Conditions>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-Potential XPA race conditions and how to avoid them.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-Currently, there is only one known circumstance in which XPA can get
-(temporarily) deadlocked in a race condition: if two or more XPA
-servers send messages to one another using an XPA client routine such
-as XPASet(), they can deadlock while each waits for the other server
-to respond.  (This can happen if the servers call XPAPoll() with a
-time limit, and send messages in between the polling call.)  The
-reason this happens is that both client routines send a string to the
-other server to establish the handshake and then wait for the server
-response. Since each client is waiting for a response, neither is able
-to enter its event-handling loop and respond to the other's
-request. This deadlock will continue until one of the timeout periods
-expire, at which point an error condition will be triggered and the
-timed-out server will return to its event loop.
-
-
-Starting with version 2.1.6, this rare race condition can be
-avoided by setting the XPA_IOCALLSXPA environment variable for servers
-that will make client calls. Setting this variable causes all XPA
-socket IO calls to process outstanding XPA requests whenever the
-primary socket is not ready for IO. This means that a server making a
-client call will (recursively) process incoming server requests while
-waiting for client completion. It also means that a server callback
-routine can handle incoming XPA messages if it makes its own XPA call.
-The semi-public routine oldvalue=XPAIOCallsXPA(newvalue) can be used
-to turn this behavior off and on temporarily. Passing a 0 will turn
-off IO processing, 1 will turn it back on. The old value is returned
-by the call.
-
-
-By default, the XPA_IOCALLSXPA option is turned off, because we judge
-that the added code complication and overhead involved will not be
-justified by the amount of its use.  Moreover, processing XPA requests
-within socket IO can lead to non-intuitive results, since incoming
-server requests will not necessarily be processed to completion in the
-order in which they are received.
-
-
-Aside from setting XPA_IOCALLSXPA, the simplest way to avoid this race
-condition is to multi-process: when you want to send a client message,
-simply start a separate process to call the client routine, so that
-the server is not stopped. It probably is fastest and easiest to use
-fork() and then have the child call the client routine and exit. But
-you also can use either the system() or popen() routine to start one
-of the command line programs and do the same thing. Alternatively, you
-can use XPA's internal launch() routine instead of system(). Based on
-fork() and exec(), this routine is more secure than system() because
-it does not call /bin/sh.
-
-
-Starting with version 2.1.5, you also can send an XPAInfo() message with
-the mode string "ack=false". This will cause the client to send a message
-to the server and then exit without waiting for any return message from
-the server. This UDP-like behavior will avoid the server deadlock when
-sending short XPAInfo messages.

-B<Introduction to XPA Server Programming>
-
-Creating an XPA server is easy: you generally only need to call the

-send and receive callback routines.  You then enter an event loop such
-as XPAMainLoop() to field XPA requests.

-

-
-B<Introduction>
-
-To use the XPA application programming interface, a software developer
-generally will include the xpa.h definitions file:
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-in the software module that defines or accesses an XPA access point, and
-then will link against the libxpa.a library:
-
-  gcc -o foo foo.c libxpa.a
-
-XPA has been compiled using both C and C++ compilers.
-
-
-A server program generally defines an XPA access point by calling the
-XPANew() routine and specifies "send" and/or "receive" callback
-procedures to be executed by the program when an external process
-either sends data or commands to this access point or requests data or
-information from this access point. A program also can define several
-sub-commands for a single access point by calling XPACmdNew() and
-XPACmdAdd() instead.  Having defined one or more public access points
-in this way, an XPA server program enters its usual event loop (or
-uses the standard XPA event loop).

-  -v		verify message to stdout
-  --version     display version and exit
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-Data read from stdin will be sent to access points matching the 
-template
-or host:port.
-A set of qualifying parameters can be appended.
-
-Normally, xpaset reads data input from stdin until EOF and sends those
-data to the XPA target, along with parameters entered on the command
-line. For example to send a FITS file to the ds9 image display:
-
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset ds9 fits
-
-
-Sometimes, however, it is desirable to send only parameters to an XPA
-access point, without sending data. For such cases, use the -p switch to
-indicate that there is no data being send to stdin. For example, to
-change the colormap used by the ds9 image display program, use:
-
-  csh> xpaset -p ds9 cmap Heat
-
-Of course, this also can be accomplished by sending EOF to stdin in
-any of the usual ways:
-
-  csh> echo "" | xpaset ds9 cmap Heat
-  csh> xpaget ds9 cmap Heat < /dev/null
-  csh> xpaset ds9 cmap Heat
-  ^D			# Ctl-D signals EOF
-
-
-The -s switch puts xpaset into server mode, in which commands and data
-can be sent to access points without having to run xpaset multiple times.
-(Its not clear if this buys you much!) The syntax for sending commands
-in server mode is:
-
-
-  csh> xpaset -s
-  xpaset ds9 colormap I8
-  ^D
-  xpaset ds9 regions
-  circle 200 300 40
-  circle 300 400 50
-  ^D
-etc.
-
-After the  required "xpaset" command is specified, optional ASCII data
-can be appended (as in the region example).  A single data/command set is
-delimited by ^D. Note that typing ^D when a command is expected terminates
-the program.
-
-NB: server mode only works from the terminal and only ASCII data can be
-sent in this way.
-
-B<Examples:>
-
-  csh> xpaset ds9 file < foo.fits
-  csh> echo "stop" | xpaset myhost:12345

-
-
-
-  #include <xpa.h>
-
-  int XPASetFd(XPA xpa,
-               char *template, char *paramlist, char *mode,
-	       int fd, char **names, char **messages, int n)
-
-
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-Read data from a standard I/O fd and send it to one or more XPA
-servers whose class:name identifier matches the specified
-template.
-
-
-A
-template
-of the form "class1:name1" is sent to the
-XPA name server, which returns a list of at most n matching XPA
-servers.  A connection is established with each of these servers and
-the paramlist string is passed to the server as the data transfer
-request is initiated. If an XPA struct is passed to the call, then the
-persistent connections are updated as described above. Otherwise,
-temporary connections are made to the servers (which will be closed
-when the call completes).
-
-
-The XPASetFd() routine then reads bytes from the specified fd
-until EOF and sends these bytes to the XPA servers.  
-The final parameter n specifies the maximum number of servers to contact.
-A string containing the class:name and ip:port of each server is returned in
-the name array.  If a given server returned an error, then the error
-message will be stored in the associated element of the messages array.
-NB: if specified, the name and messages arrays must be of size n or greater.
-
-
-The return value will contain the actual number of servers that were
-processed.  This value thus will hold the number of valid entries in
-the names and messages arrays, and can be used to loop through these
-arrays.  In names and/or messages is NULL, no information is passed back
-in that array.
-
-
-The mode string is of the form: "key1=value1,key2=value2,..."
-The following keywords are recognized:
-
-  key   	value		default		explanation
-  ------	--------	--------	-----------
-  ack		true/false	true		if false, don't wait for ack from server (after callback completes)
-  verify	true/false	false		send buf from XPASet[Fd] to stdout
-
-
-The ack keyword is useful in cases where one does not want to wait for
-the server to complete, e.g. is a lot of processing needs to be done
-on the passed data or when the success of the server operation is not
-relevant to the client.

-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-You can call XPANew(), XPACmdNew(), or XPAInfoNew() within a C
-routine to add C-based XPA server callbacks to a TCL/Tk program that
-uses a Tcl/Tk event loop (either vwait() or the Tk event loop);
-Such a program does not need or want to use the XPA event loop.
-Therefore, in order to add XPA access points to the Tcl/Tk loop, the
-following routine should be called beforehand:
-
-  int XPATclAddInput(XPA xpa);
-
-
-Normally, the xpa argument is NULL, meaning that all current XPA
-access points are registered with the event loop.  However, if a
-single XPA access point is to be added (i.e., after the event loop is
-started) then the handle of that XPA access point can be passed to
-this routine.
-
-
-The significance of the XPA/TCL interface goes beyond the support for
-using XPA inside C code. The interface allows you to write XPA
-servers and to make calls to the XPA client interface within the Tcl
-environment using the Tcl language directly. The XPA/Tcl
-interface can be loaded using the following package command:
-
-  package require tclxpa 2.0
-
-Alternatively, you can load the shared object (called libtclxpa.so ) directly:
-
-  load .../libtclxpa.so tclxpa
-
-
-Once the tclxpa package is loaded, you can use Tcl versions of XPA
-routines to define XPA servers or make client XPA calls.  The
-interface for these routines is designed to match the Unix XPA
-interface as nearly as possible.  Please refer to
-XPA Servers
-and
-XPA Clients
-for general information about these routines.  
-
-
-The file test.tcl in the XPA source directory gives examples for using the 
-XPA/Tcl interface.
-
-
-The following notes describe the minor differences between the interfaces.
-
-B<XPANew>
-
-
-  set xpa [xpanew class name help sproc sdata smode rproc rdata rmode]
-
-
-
-rproc and sproc routines are routines.  The calling sequence of the
-rproc routine is identical to its C counterpart:
-
-  proc rec_cb { xpa client_data paramlist buf len } { ... }
-
-
-The sproc routine, however is slightly different from its C counterpart
-because of the difficulty of passing data back from the callback to C:
-
-  proc sendcb { xpa client_data paramlist } { ... }
-
-
-Note that the C-based server's char **buf and int *len arguments are
-missing from the Tcl callback. This is because we did not know how to
-fill buf with data and pass it back to the C routines for communication
-with the client.  Instead, the Tcl server callback uses the following
-routine to set buf and len:
-
-  xpasetbuf xpa buf len
-
-where:
-
-  arg   	explanation
-  ------	-----------
-  xpa		the first argument of the server callback
-  buf		the data to be returned to the client
-  len		data length in bytes, (if absent, use length of the buf object)
-
-
-When this routine is called, a copy of buf is saved for transmission to
-the client.
-
-
-The fact that buf is duplicated means that TCL server writers might wish to
-perform the I/O directly within the callback, rather than have XPA do it
-automatically at the end of the routine.  To do this, set:
-
-  fillbuf=false
-
-
-in the xpanew smode and then perform I/O through the Tcl channel
-obtained from:
-
-  set dchan [xparec $xpa datachan]
-
-
-where:
-
-  arg   	explanation
-  ------	-----------
-  xpa		the first argument of the server callback
-  datachan	literal string "datachan" that returns the data channel
-  len		data length in bytes, (if absent, use length of the buf object)
-
-
-
-NB: datachan and cmdchan are not available under Windows. It is
-necessary to use the "raw" equivalents: datafd and cmdfd.
-
-
-
-The same considerations apply to the rproc for receive servers: a copy
-of the incoming data is generated to pass to the receive callback. This
-copy again can be avoided by using "fillbuf=false" in the rmode and then
-reading the incoming data from datachan.
-
-
-The send and receive callback routines can use the xpaerror and xpamessage
-routines to send errors and messages back to the client.  If you also
-want tcl itself to field an error condition, use the standard return call:
-
-  return ?-code c? ?-errorinfo i? ?-errorcode ec? string
-
-
-See the Tcl man page for more info.
-
-B<XPARec>
-
-The Tcl xparec procedure supplies server routines with access to information 
-that is available via macros in the C interface:
-
-  set val [xparec xpa <option>]
-
-
-where option is: name, class, method, cmdfd, datafd, cmdchan,
-datachan.  Note that two additional identifiers, cmdchan and datachan,
-have been added to to provide Tcl channels corresponding to datafd and
-cmdfd.  (These latter might still be retrieved in Tcl and passed back
-to a C routines.)  An additional option called "version" can be used to
-determine the XPA version used to build the Tcl interface. Note that
-the standard options require a valid XPA handle, but "version" does
-not (since it simply reports the value of the XPA_VERSION definition
-in the XPA source include file).
-
-
-
-NB: datachan and cmdchan are not available under Windows. It is
-necessary to use the "raw" equivalents: datafd and cmdfd.
-
-
-  macro 	explanation
-  ------	-----------
-  class		class of this xpa
-  name		name of this xpa
-  method	method string (inet or local connect info)
-  cmdchan	Tcl channel of command socket
-  datachan	Tcl channel of data socket
-  cmdfd		fd of command socket
-  datafd	fd of data socket
-  sendian	endian-ness of server ("little" or "big")
-  cendian	endian-ness of client ("little" or "big"
-  version	XPA version used to build this code
-
-
-
-Under Windows, the Tcl event handler cannot automatically sense when an
-XPA socket is ready for IO (i.e. Tcl_CreateFileHandler() is not available
-under Windows). The Windows Tcl event handler therefore must be awakened
-occasionally for check for XPA events. This is done using the standard
-Tcl_SetMaxBlockTime() call. The time parameter is defined in tclloop.c
-and is currently set to 1000 microseconds (1/1000 of a second). 
-
-
-The version option can be used to differentiate between source code versions.
-It was created to support legacy Tcl code that needs to maintain the 2.0.5
-calling sequence for xpaaccess. You can use a version test such as:
-
-  if [catch { xparec "" version } version] {
-    puts "pre-2.1.0e"
-  } else {
-    puts [split $version .]
-  }

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPATemplate: Access Point Names and Templates>
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-XPA access points are composed of two parts: a general class and a
-specific name.  Both parts accept template characters so that you
-can send/retrieve data to/from multiple servers at one time.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-When XPA servers call
-XPANew(),
-or
-XPACmdNew()
-to define XPA access points, they specify a string identifier composed of a
-class and a name. When clients communicate with XPA access points,
-they specify which access points to communicate with using
-an identifier of the form:
-
-  class:name
-
-All registered XPA access points that match the specified identifier
-will be available for communication (subject to access control rules,
-etc.)
-
-
-As of XPA 2.1.5, the length of both the class and name designations are
-limited to 1024 characters.
-
-
-The XPA class:name identifier actually is a template: it accepts wild
-cards in its syntax, so a single specifier can match more than one XPA
-access point.  (Note that the class is optional and defaults to "*".)
-The allowed syntax for clients to specify the class:name template is
-of the form shown below. (Note that "*" is used to denote a generic
-wild card, but other wild cards characters are supported, as described
-below).
-
-  template   	explanation
-  --------	-----------
-  class:name	exact match of class and name
-  name		match any class with this name
-  *:name	match any class with this name
-  class:*	match any name of this class
-  *:*		match any access point
-
-
-In general, the following wild-cards can be applied to class and name:
-
-  wildcard	explanation
-  --------	-----------
-  ?		match any character, but there must be one
-  *		match anything, or nothing
-  [...]		match an inclusive set
-
-
-Although the class:name template normally is used to refer to XPA
-access points, these also can be specified using their individual
-socket identifiers.  For inet sockets, the socket identifier is
-B<ip:port>, where ip can be the DNS-registered name,
-the ASCII IP number (e.g. 123.45.67.890) or the hex IP number
-(e.g. 838f3a60). For unix sockets, the identifier is the socket file
-name.  These socket identifiers are displayed as the fourth argument
-in the xpans display of registered access points.  For example,
-consider the ds9 program started using inet sockets. The xpans name
-server will register something like this:
-
-  csh> xpaget xpans
-  DS9 ds9 gs saord.harvard.edu:3236 eric
-
-You can access ds9 using ip:3236 in any of the three forms:
-
-  csh> xpaget saord:3236 file
-  /home/eric/data/snr.ev
-
-  csh> xpaget 123.45.67.890:3236 file
-  /home/eric/data/snr.ev
-
-  csh> xpaget 838f3a60:3236 file
-  /home/eric/data/snr.ev
-
-In the case of unix  sockets, the socket identifier is a file:
-
-  csh> xpaget xpans
-  DS9 ds9 gs /tmp/.xpa/DS9_ds9.2631 eric
-
-  csh> xpaget /tmp/.xpa/DS9_ds9.2631 file
-  /home/eric/data/snr.ev 
-
-This feature can be useful in distinguishing between multiple
-instances of a program that all have the same class:name designation.

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPAUsers: Distinguishing Users>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-
-XPA normally distinguishes between users on a given host, but it is possible
-to send data to access points belonging to other users.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-A single XPA name service typically serves all users on a given
-machine.  Two users can register the same XPA access points on the
-same machine without conflict, because the user's username is
-registered with each access point and, by default, programs such as
-xpaget and xpaset only process access points of the appropriate user.
-For example:
-
-  XPA xpa1 gs 838e2f67:1262 eric
-  XPA xpa2 gs 838e2f67:1266 eric
-  XPA xpa1 gs 838e2f67:2523 john
-  XPA xpa2 gs 838e2f67:2527 john
-
-Here the users "eric" and "john" both have registered the access
-points xpa1 and xpa2. When either "john" or "eric" retrieves
-information from xpa1, they will process only the access point
-registered in their user name.
-
-
-If you want to access another user's XPA access points on a single
-machine, use the -u [user] option on xpaset, xpaget, etc. For example,
-if eric executes:
-
-  xpaget -u john xpa1
-
-he will access John's xpa1 access point.Use "*" to access all users
-on a given machine:
-
-  xpaget -u "*" xpa1
-
-Note that the XPA Environment Variable
-XPA_NSUSERS can be used to specify the default list of users to
-process:
-
-  setenv XPA_NSUSERS "eric,john"
-
-will cause access points from both "eric" and "john" to be processed
-by default.

-=head1 NAME
-
-
-
-B<XPAXt: the XPA Interface to Xt (X Windows)>
-
-
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-
-
-
-Describes how XPA access points can be added to X Toolkit (Xt) programs.
-
-
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-
-
-
-
-XPA supports Xt programs: you can call XPANew(), XPACmdNew(), or
-XPAInfoNew() within any C routine to add XPA server callbacks to an Xt
-program.  Since an Xt program has its own event loop call (i.e.,
-XtAppMainLoop()), it therefore does not need or want to use the XPA
-even loop.  Thus, in order to add XPA access points to the standard Xt
-event loop, the following routine should be called before entering the
-loop:
-
-  int XPAXtAddInput(XtAppContext app, XPA xpa)
-
-
-The XPAAddAddInput() routine will add XPA access points to the Xt event
-loop by making calls to the standard XtAppAddInput() routine. (If the
-XtAppContext argument is NULL, then the alternate XtAddInput() routine
-is used instead.)  If the xpa argument is NULL, then all active XPA
-access points are added to the loop.  If xpa is not NULL, then only
-the specified access point is added.  The latter type of call is used
-to add new access points from within a callback, after the program has
-entered the XtAppMainLoop() even loop.

-Data read from stdin will be sent to access points matching the 
-<A HREF="./template.html">template</A>
-or host:port.
-A set of qualifying parameters can be appended.
-<P>
-Normally, xpaset reads data input from stdin until EOF and sends those
-data to the XPA target, along with parameters entered on the command
-line. For example to send a FITS file to the ds9 image display:
-<PRE>
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset ds9 fits
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Sometimes, however, it is desirable to send only parameters to an XPA
-access point, without sending data. For such cases, use the -p switch to
-indicate that there is no data being send to stdin. For example, to
-change the colormap used by the ds9 image display program, use:
-<PRE>
-  csh> xpaset -p ds9 cmap Heat
-</PRE>
-Of course, this also can be accomplished by sending EOF to stdin in
-any of the usual ways:
-<PRE>
-  csh> echo "" | xpaset ds9 cmap Heat
-  csh> xpaget ds9 cmap Heat < /dev/null
-  csh> xpaset ds9 cmap Heat
-  ^D			# Ctl-D signals EOF
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The -s switch puts xpaset into server mode, in which commands and data
-can be sent to access points without having to run xpaset multiple times.
-(Its not clear if this buys you much!) The syntax for sending commands
-in server mode is:
-<P>
-<PRE>
-  csh> xpaset -s
-  xpaset ds9 colormap I8
-  ^D
-  xpaset ds9 regions
-  circle 200 300 40
-  circle 300 400 50
-  ^D
-etc.
-</PRE>
-After the  required "xpaset" command is specified, optional ASCII data
-can be appended (as in the region example).  A single data/command set is
-delimited by ^D. Note that typing ^D when a command is expected terminates
-the program.
-<P>
-NB: server mode only works from the terminal and only ASCII data can be
-sent in this way.
-<P>

-xpaaccess returns "yes" to stdout (with a return error code if 1) if there are
-existing XPA access points that match the 
-<A HREF="./template.html">template</A>
-(and optional access type: g,i,s). Otherwise, it returns "no" (with a
-return error code of 0).  If -n is specified, the number of matches is
-returned instead (both to stdout and in the returned error code). If
--v is specified, each access point is displayed to stdout instead of
-the number of matches.
-
-<P>
-By default, xpaaccess simply contacts the xpans name server to find
-the list of registered access points that match the specified
-template. It also checks to make sure the specified types are
-supported by that access point. This is the fastest way to determine
-available access points. However, an access point might registered but
-not yet available, if, for example, the server program has not entered
-its event loop to process XPA requests. To find access points that are
-guaranteed to be available for processing, use the -c (contact)
-switch.  With this switch, xpaaccess contacts each matching XPA server
-(rather than the name server) to make sure the registered access point
-really is ready for processing. In this mode, if an access point is
-registered but not available, xpaaccess will pause for a period of
-time equal to the XPA_LONG_TIMEOUT, in order to give the server a
-chance to ready itself. By default, this timeout is 30 seconds. You
-can shorten the time of delay using the -t "short,long" switch. For
-example, to shorten the delay time to 2 seconds, use:
-<PRE>
-  xpaaccess -c -t "2,2" ds9
-</PRE>
-The first argument is the short delay value, and is ignored in this
-operation. The second is the long delay timeout.
-
-<P>
-Note also that the default xpaaccess method (no -c switch) does not
-check access control (acls) but rather only checks whether the access
-point is both registered with the xpans name server and provides the
-specified type of access. In other words, the default xpaaccess could
-return 'yes' when you might not actually have access. This mode also
-always returns 'yes' for the xpans name server itself, regardless of
-whether the name server is active. The -c (contact) switch, which
-contacts the access point directly, can and does check the access
-control (only for servers using version 2.1 and above) and also
-returns the real status of xpans.

-Creating an XPA server is easy: you generally only need to call the

-send and receive callback routines.  You then enter an event loop such

-<H2>Introduction</H2>
-
-To use the XPA application programming interface, a software developer
-generally will include the xpa.h definitions file:
-<PRE>
-  #include &lt;xpa.h&gt;
-</PRE>
-in the software module that defines or accesses an XPA access point, and
-then will link against the libxpa.a library:
-<PRE>
-  gcc -o foo foo.c libxpa.a
-</PRE>
-XPA has been compiled using both C and C++ compilers.
-
-<P>
-A server program generally defines an XPA access point by calling the
-XPANew() routine and specifies "send" and/or "receive" callback
-procedures to be executed by the program when an external process
-either sends data or commands to this access point or requests data or
-information from this access point. A program also can define several
-sub-commands for a single access point by calling XPACmdNew() and
-XPACmdAdd() instead.  Having defined one or more public access points
-in this way, an XPA server program enters its usual event loop (or
-uses the standard XPA event loop).

-  XPA XPANew(char *class, char *name, char *help,
-	     int (*send_callback)(),
-	     void *send_data, char *send_mode,
-	     int (*rec_callback)(),
-	     void *rec_data,  char *rec_mode);
-</PRE>
-</B>
-
-<!-- =section xpanew DESCRIPTION -->
-<P>
-Create a new XPA public access point with the class:name
-identifier <A HREF="./template.html">template</A>
-and enter this access point into the XPA name server, so that it
-can be accessed by external processes. XPANew() returns an XPA struct.
-Note that the length of the class and name designations must be less
-than or equal to 1024 characters each.
-
-<P>
-The XPA name server daemon, xpans, will be started automatically if it
-is not running already (assuming it can be found in the path).  The
-program's ip address and listening port are specified by the
-environment variable XPA_NSINET, which takes the form <ip>:<port>.  If
-no such environment variable exists, then xpans is started on the
-current machine listening on port 14285.  It also uses 14286 as a
-known port for its public access point (so that routines do not have
-to go to the name server to find the name server ip and port!)
-As of XPA 2.1.1, version information is exchanged between the xpans
-process and the new access point. If the access point uses an XPA
-major/minor version newer than xpans, a warning is issued by both processes,
-since mixing of new servers and old xpa programs (xpaset, xpaget,
-xpans, etc.) is not likely to work. You can turn off the warning
-message by setting the XPA_VERSIONCHECK environment variable to "false".
-
-<P>
-The help string is meant to be returned by a request from xpaget:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget class:name -help
-</PRE>
-<P>
-A send_callback and/or a receive_callback can be specified; at
-least one of them must be specified.
-
-<P>
-A send_callback can be specified that will be executed in response to
-an external request from the xpaget program, the XPAGet() routine, or
-XPAGetFd() routine. This callback is used to send data to the
-requesting client.
-
-<P>
-The calling sequence for send_callback() is:
-<PRE>
-  int send_callback(void *send_data, void *call_data,
-    char *paramlist, char **buf, size_t *len)
-  {
-    XPA xpa = (XPA)call_data;
-    ...
-    return(stat);
-  }
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The send_mode string is of the form: "key1=value1,key2=value2,..."
-The following keywords are recognized:
-<PRE>
-  key   	value		default		explanation
-  ------	--------	--------	-----------
-  acl		true/false	true		enable access control
-  freebuf	true/false	true		free buf after callback completes
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The call_data should be recast to the XPA struct as shown.  In
-addition, client-specific data can be passed to the callback in
-send_data.
-
-<P>
-The paramlist will be supplied by the client as qualifying parameters
-for the callback.  There are two ways in which the send_callback()
-routine can send data back to the client:
-
-<P>
-1. The send_callback() routine can fill in a buffer and pass back a
-pointer to this buffer. An integer len also is returned to specify the
-number of bytes of data in buf.  XPA will send this buffer to the
-client after the callback is complete.
-
-<P>
-2. The send_callback can send data directly to the client by writing
-to the fd pointed by the macro:
-<PRE>
-  xpa_datafd(xpa)
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Note that this fd is of the kind returned by socket() or open().
-
-<P>
-If a buf has been allocated by a standard malloc routine, filled, and
-returned to XPA, then freebuf generally is set so that the buffer will
-be freed automatically when the callback is completed and data has
-been sent to the client.  If a static buf is returned, freebuf should
-be set to false to avoid a system error when freeing static storage.
-Note that default value for freebuf implies that the callback will
-allocate a buffer rather than use static storage.
-
-<P>
-On the other hand, if buf is dynamically allocated using a method
-other than a standard malloc/calloc/realloc routine (e.g. using Perl's
-memory allocation and garbage collection scheme), then it is necessary
-to tell XPA how to free the allocated buffer. To do this, use the
-XPASetFree() routine within your callback:
-<PRE>
-  void XPASetFree(XPA xpa, void (*myfree)(void *), void *myfree_ptr);
-</PRE>
-The first argument is the usual XPA handle. The second argument is the
-special routine to call to free your allocated memory. The third
-argument is an optional pointer.  If not NULL, the specified free
-routine is called with that pointer as its sole argument. If NULL, the
-free routine is called with the standard buf pointer as its sole
-argument. This is useful in cases where there is a mapping between the
-buffer pointer and the actual allocated memory location, and the
-special routine is expecting to be passed the former.
-
-<P>
-If, while the callback performs its processing, an error occurs that
-should be communicated to the client, then the routine XPAError should be
-called:
-<PRE>
-  XPAError(XPA xpa, char *s);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-where s is an arbitrary error message.  The returned error message
-string will be of the form:
-<PRE>
-  XPA$ERROR   [error] (class:name ip:port)
-</PRE>
-<P>
-If the callback wants to send a specific acknowledgment message back
-to the client, the routine XPAMessage can be called:
-<PRE>
-  XPAMessage(XPA xpa, char *s);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-where s is an arbitrary error message.  The returned error message
-string will be of the form:
-<PRE>
-  XPA$MESSAGE [message] (class:name ip:port)
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Otherwise, a standard acknowledgment is sent back to the client
-after the callback is completed.
-
-<P>
-The callback routine should return 0 if no error occurs, or -1 to
-signal an error.
-
-<P>
-A receive_callback can be specified that will be executed in response
-to an external request from the xpaset program, or the XPASet (or
-XPASetFd()) routine. This callback is used to process data received
-from an external process.
-
-<P>
-The calling sequence for receive_callback is:
-<PRE>
-  int receive_callback(void *receive_data, void *call_data,
-    char *paramlist, char *buf, size_t len)
-  {
-    XPA xpa = (XPA)call_data;
-    ...
-    return(stat);
-  }
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The mode string is of the form: "key1=value1,key2=value2,..."
-The following keywords are recognized:
-<PRE>
-  key   	value		default		explanation
-  ------	--------	--------	-----------
-  acl		true/false	true		enable access control
-  buf		true/false	true		server expects data bytes from client
-  fillbuf	true/false	true		read data into buf before executing callback
-  freebuf	true/false	true		free buf after callback completes
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The call_data should be recast to the XPA struct as shown.  In
-addition, client-specific data can be passed to the callback in
-receive_data.
-
-<P>
-The paramlist will be supplied by the client. In addition, if the
-receive_mode keywords buf and fillbuf are true, then on entry into the
-receive_callback() routine, buf will contain the data sent by the
-client. If buf is true but fillbuf is false, it becomes the callback's
-responsibility to retrieve the data from the client, using the data fd
-pointed to by the macro xpa_datafd(xpa).  If freebuf is true, then buf
-will be freed when the callback is complete.
-
-<P>
-If, while the callback is performing its processing, an error occurs
-that should be communicated to the client, then the routine XPAError
-can be called:
-<PRE>
-  XPAError(XPA xpa, char *s);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-where s is an arbitrary error message.
-
-<P>
-The callback routine should return 0 if no error occurs, or -1 to
-signal an error.

-XPACmdNew() returns an XPA struct.
-
-<P>
-It often is more convenient to have one public access point that can
-manage a number of commands, rather than having individual access
-points for each command. For example, it is easier to command the
-ds9 image display using:
-<PRE>
-  echo "colormap I8"   | xpaset ds9
-  echo "scale log"     | xpaset ds9
-  echo "file foo.fits" | xpaset ds9
-</PRE>
-<P>
-then to use:
-<PRE>
-  echo "I8"       | xpaset ds9_colormap
-  echo "log"      | xpaset ds9_scale
-  echo "foo.fits" | xpaset ds9_file
-</PRE>
-<P>
-In the first case, the commands remain the same regardless of the
-target XPA name.  In the second case, the command names must change
-for each instance of ds9.  That is, if a second instance of ds9
-called DS9 were running, it would be commanded either as:
-<PRE>
-  echo "colormap I8"   | xpaset DS9
-  echo "scale log"     | xpaset DS9
-  echo "file foo.fits" | xpaset DS9
-</PRE>
-<P>
-or as:
-<PRE>
-  echo "I8"       | xpaset DS9_colormap
-  echo "log"      | xpaset DS9_scale
-  echo "foo.fits" | xpaset DS9_file
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Thus, in cases where a program is going to manage many commands, it
-generally is easier to define them as commands associated with the
-XPACmdNew() routine, rather than as separate access points using
-XPANew().
-
-<P>
-When XPACmdNew() is called, only the class:name identifier is
-specified.  Each sub-command is subsequently defined using the
-XPACmdAdd() routine.

-Add a command to an XPA command access point. The XPA argument specifies the

-arguments in the XPANew() command, i.e., the send_callback and rec_callback
-routines have identical calling sequences to their XPANew() counterparts,

-[NB: this is an experimental interface, new to XPA 2.0, whose value
-and best use is evolving.]
-
-<P>
-A program can register interest in receiving a short message about a
-particular topic from any other process that cares to send such a
-message.  Neither has to be an XPA server.  For example, if a user
-starts to work with a new image file called new.fits, she might
-wish to alert interested programs about this new file by sending a
-short message using xpainfo:
-<PRE>
-  xpainfo IMAGEFILE /data/new.fits
-</PRE>
-
-<P>
-In this example, each process that has used the XPAInfoNew() call to
-register interest in messages associated with the identifier IMAGEFILE
-will have its info_callback() executed with the following calling
-sequence:
-<PRE>
-  int info_cb(void *info_data, void *call_data, char *paramlist)
-  {
-    XPA xpa = (XPA)call_data;
-  }
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The arguments passed to this routine are equivalent to those sent in
-the send_callback() routine.  The main difference is that there is no
-buf sent to the info callback: this mechanism is meant for short
-announcement of messages of interest to many clients.
-
-<P>
-The mode string is of the form: "key1=value1,key2=value2,..."
-The following keywords are recognized:
-<PRE>
-  key   	value		default		explanation
-  ------	--------	--------	-----------
-  acl		true/false	true		enable access control
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Because no buf is passed to this callback, the usual buf-related keywords
-are not applicable here.
-
-<P>
-The information sent in the parameter list is arbitrary.  However, we
-envision sending information such as file names or XPA access points
-from which to collect more data.  Note that the xpainfo program and
-the XPAInfo() routine that cause the info_callback to execute do not
-wait for the callback to complete before returning.

-<!-- =section xpamainloop DESCRIPTION -->
-<P>
-Once XPA access points have been defined, a program must enter an
-event loop to watch for requests from external programs. This can be
-done in a variety of ways, depending on whether the event loop is
-processing events other than XPA events.  In cases where there are no
-non-XPA events to be processed, the program can simply call the
-XPAMainLoop() event loop.  This loop is implemented essentially as
-follows (error checking is simplified in this example):
-<PRE>
-  FD_ZERO(&readfds);
-  while( XPAAddSelect(NULL, &readfds) ){
-    if( sgot = select(swidth, &readfds, NULL, NULL, NULL) >0 )
-      XPAProcessSelect(&readfds, 0);
-    else
-      break;
-    FD_ZERO(&readfds);
-  }
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The XPAAddSelect() routine sets up the select() readfds variable so
-that select() will wait for I/O on all the active XPA channels.  It
-returns the number of XPAs that are active; the loop will end when
-there are no active XPAs. The standard select() routine is called to
-wait for an external I/O request.  Since no timeout struct is passed
-in argument 5, the select() call hangs until there is an external
-request.  When an external I/O request is made, the XPAProcessSelect()
-routine is executed to process the pending requests.  In this routine,
-the maxreq value determines how many requests will be processed: if
-maxreq <=0, then all currently pending requests will be processed.
-Otherwise, up to maxreq requests will be processed.  (The most usual
-values for maxreq is 0 to process all requests.)
-
-<P>
-If a program has its own Unix select() loop, then XPA access points can
-be added to it by using a variation of the standard XPAMainLoop:
-<PRE>
-  XPAAddSelect(xpa, &readfds);
-  [app-specific ...]
-  if( select(width, &readfds, ...) ){
-    XPAProcessSelect(&readfds, maxreq);
-    [app-specific ...]
-    FD_ZERO(&readfds);
-  }
-</PRE>
-<P>
-XPAAddSelect() is called before select() to add the access points.
-If the first argument is NULL, then all active XPA access points
-are added. Otherwise only the specified access point is added.
-After select() is called, the XPAProcessSelect() routine can be called
-to process XPA requests.  Once again, the maxreq value determines how
-many requests will be processed: if maxreq <=0, then all currently
-pending requests will be processed.  Otherwise, up to maxreq requests
-will be processed.
-
-<P>
-XPA access points can be added to
-<A HREF="./xt.html">Xt event loops</A> (using XtAppMainLoop())
-and
-<A HREF="./tcl.html">Tcl/Tk event loops</A> (using vwait and the Tk loop).
-When using XPA with these event loops, you only need to call:
-<PRE>
-int XPAXtAddInput(XtAppContext app, XPA xpa)
-</PRE>
-or
-<PRE>
-  int XPATclAddInput(XPA xpa)
-</PRE>
-respectively before entering the loop.

-<!-- =section xpapoll DESCRIPTION -->
-<P>
-It is sometimes desirable to implement a polling loop, i.e., where one
-checks for and processes XPA requests without blocking.  For this
-situation, use the XPAPoll() routine:
-<PRE>
-  XPAPoll(int msec, int maxreq);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The XPAPoll() routine will perform XPAAddSelect() and select(), but with a
-timeout specified in millisecs by the msec argument. If one or more
-XPA requests are made before the timeout expires, the XPAProcessSelect()
-routine is called to process those requests. The maxreq value determines
-how many requests will be processed: if maxreq < 0, then no events are
-processed, but instead, the return value indicates the number of events
-that are pending.  If maxreq == 0, then all currently pending requests
-will be processed.  Otherwise, up to maxreq requests will be processed.
-(The most usual values for maxreq are 0 to process all requests and 1
-to process one request).

-XPAAtExit() will install an exit handler using atexit() to run XPAFree on all
-XPA access points. This might be useful in cases where Unix sockets are being
-used: if an explicit call to XPAFree() is not made by the program, the Unix
-socket file will not be deleted immediately without an atexit handler. (NB: this

-system after Tcl has shut down all file systems causes the Tcl/Tl program to

-When XPA is initialized, it allocates a small amount of memory for the

-<!-- =section xpamacros DESCRIPTION -->
-<P>
-Server routines have  access to information about the XPA being called via
-the following macros (each of which takes the xpa handle as an argument):
-<PRE>
-  macro		 	explanation
-  ------		-----------
-  xpa_class		class of this xpa
-  xpa_name		name of this xpa
-  xpa_method		method string (inet or local connect info)
-  xpa_cmdfd		fd of command socket
-  xpa_datafd		fd of data socket
-  xpa_sendian		endian-ness of server ("little" or "big")
-  xpa_cendian		endian-ness of client ("little" or "big"
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The argument to these macros is the call_data pointer that is passed
-to the server procedure.  This pointer should be type case to XPA
-in the server routine:
-<PRE>
-  XPA xpa = (XPA)call_data;
-</PRE>
-
-<P>
-The most important of these macros is xpa_datafd().  A server routine
-that sets "fillbuf=false" in receive_mode or send_mode can use this
-macro to perform I/O directly to/from the client, rather than using
-buf.
-
-<P>
-The xpa_cendian and xpa_sendian macros can be used together to determine
-if the data transferred from the client is byte swapped with respect
-to the server. Values for these macros are: "little", "big", or "?".
-In order to do a proper conversion, you still need to know the format
-of the data (i.e., byte swapping is dependent on the size of the data
-element being converted).

-
-<!-- =section xparace SYNOPSIS -->
-Potential XPA race conditions and how to avoid them.
-
-<!-- =section xparace DESCRIPTION -->
-<P>
-Currently, there is only one known circumstance in which XPA can get
-(temporarily) deadlocked in a race condition: if two or more XPA
-servers send messages to one another using an XPA client routine such
-as XPASet(), they can deadlock while each waits for the other server
-to respond.  (This can happen if the servers call XPAPoll() with a
-time limit, and send messages in between the polling call.)  The
-reason this happens is that both client routines send a string to the
-other server to establish the handshake and then wait for the server
-response. Since each client is waiting for a response, neither is able
-to enter its event-handling loop and respond to the other's
-request. This deadlock will continue until one of the timeout periods
-expire, at which point an error condition will be triggered and the
-timed-out server will return to its event loop.
-
-<P>
-Starting with version 2.1.6, this rare race condition can be
-avoided by setting the XPA_IOCALLSXPA environment variable for servers
-that will make client calls. Setting this variable causes all XPA
-socket IO calls to process outstanding XPA requests whenever the
-primary socket is not ready for IO. This means that a server making a
-client call will (recursively) process incoming server requests while
-waiting for client completion. It also means that a server callback
-routine can handle incoming XPA messages if it makes its own XPA call.
-The semi-public routine oldvalue=XPAIOCallsXPA(newvalue) can be used
-to turn this behavior off and on temporarily. Passing a 0 will turn
-off IO processing, 1 will turn it back on. The old value is returned
-by the call.
-
-<P>
-By default, the XPA_IOCALLSXPA option is turned off, because we judge
-that the added code complication and overhead involved will not be
-justified by the amount of its use.  Moreover, processing XPA requests
-within socket IO can lead to non-intuitive results, since incoming
-server requests will not necessarily be processed to completion in the
-order in which they are received.
-
-<P>
-Aside from setting XPA_IOCALLSXPA, the simplest way to avoid this race
-condition is to multi-process: when you want to send a client message,
-simply start a separate process to call the client routine, so that
-the server is not stopped. It probably is fastest and easiest to use
-fork() and then have the child call the client routine and exit. But
-you also can use either the system() or popen() routine to start one
-of the command line programs and do the same thing. Alternatively, you
-can use XPA's internal launch() routine instead of system(). Based on
-fork() and exec(), this routine is more secure than system() because
-it does not call /bin/sh.
-
-<P>
-Starting with version 2.1.5, you also can send an XPAInfo() message with
-the mode string "ack=false". This will cause the client to send a message
-to the server and then exit without waiting for any return message from
-the server. This UDP-like behavior will avoid the server deadlock when
-sending short XPAInfo messages.

-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-You can call XPANew(), XPACmdNew(), or XPAInfoNew() within a C
-routine to add C-based XPA server callbacks to a TCL/Tk program that
-uses a Tcl/Tk event loop (either vwait() or the Tk event loop);
-Such a program does not need or want to use the XPA event loop.
-Therefore, in order to add XPA access points to the Tcl/Tk loop, the
-following routine should be called beforehand:
-<PRE>
-  int XPATclAddInput(XPA xpa);
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Normally, the xpa argument is NULL, meaning that all current XPA
-access points are registered with the event loop.  However, if a
-single XPA access point is to be added (i.e., after the event loop is
-started) then the handle of that XPA access point can be passed to
-this routine.
-
-<P>
-The significance of the XPA/TCL interface goes beyond the support for
-using XPA inside C code. The interface allows you to write XPA
-servers and to make calls to the XPA client interface within the Tcl
-environment using the Tcl language directly. The XPA/Tcl
-interface can be loaded using the following package command:
-<PRE>
-  package require tclxpa 2.0
-</PRE>
-Alternatively, you can load the shared object (called libtclxpa.so ) directly:
-<PRE>
-  load .../libtclxpa.so tclxpa
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Once the tclxpa package is loaded, you can use Tcl versions of XPA
-routines to define XPA servers or make client XPA calls.  The
-interface for these routines is designed to match the Unix XPA
-interface as nearly as possible.  Please refer to
-<A HREF="./server.html">XPA Servers</A>
-and
-<A HREF="./client.html">XPA Clients</A>
-for general information about these routines.  
-
-<P>
-The file test.tcl in the XPA source directory gives examples for using the 
-XPA/Tcl interface.
-
-<P>
-The following notes describe the minor differences between the interfaces.
-
-<H2><A NAME="xpanew">XPANew</A></H2>

-<B>
-  set xpa [xpanew class name help sproc sdata smode rproc rdata rmode]
-</B>
-</PRE>
-<P>
-rproc and sproc routines are routines.  The calling sequence of the
-rproc routine is identical to its C counterpart:
-<PRE>
-  proc rec_cb { xpa client_data paramlist buf len } { ... }
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The sproc routine, however is slightly different from its C counterpart
-because of the difficulty of passing data back from the callback to C:
-<PRE>
-  proc sendcb { xpa client_data paramlist } { ... }
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Note that the C-based server's char **buf and int *len arguments are
-missing from the Tcl callback. This is because we did not know how to
-fill buf with data and pass it back to the C routines for communication
-with the client.  Instead, the Tcl server callback uses the following
-routine to set buf and len:
-<PRE>
-  xpasetbuf xpa buf len
-</PRE>
-where:
-<PRE>
-  arg   	explanation
-  ------	-----------
-  xpa		the first argument of the server callback
-  buf		the data to be returned to the client
-  len		data length in bytes, (if absent, use length of the buf object)
-</PRE>
-<P>
-When this routine is called, a copy of buf is saved for transmission to
-the client.
-
-<P>
-The fact that buf is duplicated means that TCL server writers might wish to
-perform the I/O directly within the callback, rather than have XPA do it
-automatically at the end of the routine.  To do this, set:
-<PRE>
-  fillbuf=false
-</PRE>
-<P>

-<PRE>
-  arg   	explanation
-  ------	-----------
-  xpa		the first argument of the server callback
-  datachan	literal string "datachan" that returns the data channel
-  len		data length in bytes, (if absent, use length of the buf object)
-</PRE>
-<P>
-<B>
-NB: datachan and cmdchan are not available under Windows. It is
-necessary to use the "raw" equivalents: datafd and cmdfd.
-</B>
-
-<P>
-The same considerations apply to the rproc for receive servers: a copy
-of the incoming data is generated to pass to the receive callback. This
-copy again can be avoided by using "fillbuf=false" in the rmode and then
-reading the incoming data from datachan.
-
-<P>
-The send and receive callback routines can use the xpaerror and xpamessage
-routines to send errors and messages back to the client.  If you also
-want tcl itself to field an error condition, use the standard return call:
-<PRE>
-  return ?-code c? ?-errorinfo i? ?-errorcode ec? string
-</PRE>
-<P>
-See the Tcl man page for more info.

-The Tcl xparec procedure supplies server routines with access to information 
-that is available via macros in the C interface:
-<PRE>
-  set val [xparec xpa &lt;option&gt;]
-</PRE>
-<P>
-where option is: name, class, method, cmdfd, datafd, cmdchan,
-datachan.  Note that two additional identifiers, cmdchan and datachan,
-have been added to to provide Tcl channels corresponding to datafd and
-cmdfd.  (These latter might still be retrieved in Tcl and passed back
-to a C routines.)  An additional option called "version" can be used to
-determine the XPA version used to build the Tcl interface. Note that
-the standard options require a valid XPA handle, but "version" does
-not (since it simply reports the value of the XPA_VERSION definition
-in the XPA source include file).
-
-<P>
-<B>
-NB: datachan and cmdchan are not available under Windows. It is
-necessary to use the "raw" equivalents: datafd and cmdfd.
-</B>
-<PRE>
-  macro 	explanation
-  ------	-----------
-  class		class of this xpa
-  name		name of this xpa
-  method	method string (inet or local connect info)
-  cmdchan	Tcl channel of command socket
-  datachan	Tcl channel of data socket
-  cmdfd		fd of command socket
-  datafd	fd of data socket
-  sendian	endian-ness of server ("little" or "big")
-  cendian	endian-ness of client ("little" or "big"

-
-<p>
-Under Windows, the Tcl event handler cannot automatically sense when an
-XPA socket is ready for IO (i.e. Tcl_CreateFileHandler() is not available
-under Windows). The Windows Tcl event handler therefore must be awakened
-occasionally for check for XPA events. This is done using the standard
-Tcl_SetMaxBlockTime() call. The time parameter is defined in tclloop.c
-and is currently set to 1000 microseconds (1/1000 of a second). 
-
-<P>
-The version option can be used to differentiate between source code versions.
-It was created to support legacy Tcl code that needs to maintain the 2.0.5
-calling sequence for xpaaccess. You can use a version test such as:
-<PRE>
-  if [catch { xparec "" version } version] {
-    puts "pre-2.1.0e"
-  } else {
-    puts [split $version .]
-  }

-<!-- =section xpatemplate SYNOPSIS -->
-<H2>Summary</H2>
-<P>
-XPA access points are composed of two parts: a general class and a
-specific name.  Both parts accept template characters so that you
-can send/retrieve data to/from multiple servers at one time.
-
-<!-- =section xpatemplate DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-When XPA servers call
-<A HREF="./server.html#xpanew">XPANew(),</A>
-or
-<A HREF="./server.html#xpacmdnew">XPACmdNew()</A>
-to define XPA access points, they specify a string identifier composed of a
-class and a name. When clients communicate with XPA access points,
-they specify which access points to communicate with using
-an identifier of the form:
-<PRE>
-  class:name
-</PRE>
-All registered XPA access points that match the specified identifier
-will be available for communication (subject to access control rules,
-etc.)
-
-<P>
-As of XPA 2.1.5, the length of both the class and name designations are
-limited to 1024 characters.
-
-<P>
-The XPA class:name identifier actually is a template: it accepts wild
-cards in its syntax, so a single specifier can match more than one XPA
-access point.  (Note that the class is optional and defaults to "*".)
-The allowed syntax for clients to specify the class:name template is
-of the form shown below. (Note that "*" is used to denote a generic
-wild card, but other wild cards characters are supported, as described
-below).
-<PRE>
-  template   	explanation
-  --------	-----------
-  class:name	exact match of class and name
-  name		match any class with this name
-  *:name	match any class with this name
-  class:*	match any name of this class
-  *:*		match any access point
-</PRE>
-<P>
-In general, the following wild-cards can be applied to class and name:
-<PRE>
-  wildcard	explanation
-  --------	-----------
-  ?		match any character, but there must be one
-  *		match anything, or nothing
-  [...]		match an inclusive set
-</PRE>
-<P>
-Although the class:name template normally is used to refer to XPA
-access points, these also can be specified using their individual
-socket identifiers.  For inet sockets, the socket identifier is
-<B>ip:port</B>, where ip can be the DNS-registered name,
-the ASCII IP number (e.g. 123.45.67.890) or the hex IP number
-(e.g. 838f3a60). For unix sockets, the identifier is the <B>socket file
-name</B>.  These socket identifiers are displayed as the fourth argument
-in the xpans display of registered access points.  For example,
-consider the ds9 program started using inet sockets. The xpans name
-server will register something like this:
-<PRE>
-  csh> xpaget xpans
-  DS9 ds9 gs saord.harvard.edu:3236 eric
-</PRE>
-You can access ds9 using ip:3236 in any of the three forms:
-<PRE>
-  csh> xpaget saord:3236 file
-  /home/eric/data/snr.ev
-
-  csh> xpaget 123.45.67.890:3236 file
-  /home/eric/data/snr.ev
-
-  csh> xpaget 838f3a60:3236 file
-  /home/eric/data/snr.ev
-</PRE>
-In the case of unix  sockets, the socket identifier is a file:
-<PRE>
-  csh> xpaget xpans
-  DS9 ds9 gs /tmp/.xpa/DS9_ds9.2631 eric
-
-  csh> xpaget /tmp/.xpa/DS9_ds9.2631 file
-  /home/eric/data/snr.ev 
-</PRE>
-This feature can be useful in distinguishing between multiple
-instances of a program that all have the same class:name designation.

-
-<!-- =section xpausers SYNOPSIS -->
-<H2>Summary</H2>
-<P>
-XPA normally distinguishes between users on a given host, but it is possible
-to send data to access points belonging to other users.
-
-<!-- =section xpausers DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-A single XPA name service typically serves all users on a given
-machine.  Two users can register the same XPA access points on the
-same machine without conflict, because the user's username is
-registered with each access point and, by default, programs such as
-xpaget and xpaset only process access points of the appropriate user.
-For example:
-<PRE>
-  XPA xpa1 gs 838e2f67:1262 eric
-  XPA xpa2 gs 838e2f67:1266 eric
-  XPA xpa1 gs 838e2f67:2523 john
-  XPA xpa2 gs 838e2f67:2527 john
-</PRE>
-Here the users "eric" and "john" both have registered the access
-points xpa1 and xpa2. When either "john" or "eric" retrieves
-information from xpa1, they will process only the access point
-registered in their user name.
-
-<P>
-If you want to access another user's XPA access points on a single
-machine, use the -u [user] option on xpaset, xpaget, etc. For example,
-if eric executes:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget -u john xpa1
-</PRE>
-he will access John's xpa1 access point.Use "*" to access all users
-on a given machine:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget -u "*" xpa1
-</PRE>
-Note that the <A HREF="./env.html">XPA Environment Variable</A>
-XPA_NSUSERS can be used to specify the default list of users to
-process:
-<PRE>
-  setenv XPA_NSUSERS "eric,john"
-</PRE>
-will cause access points from both "eric" and "john" to be processed
-by default.

-)0 P(The XPA messaging system provides seamless communication between many
-kinds of Unix programs, including X programs and Tcl/Tk programs.  It
-also provides an easy way for users to communicate with XPA-enabled
-programs by executing XPA client commands in the shell or by utilizing
-such commands in scripts.  Because XPA works both at the programming
-level and the shell level, it is a powerful tool for unifying any
-analysis environment: users and programmers have great flexibility in
-choosing the best level or levels at which to access XPA services, and
-client access can be extended or modified easily at any time.
-
-)0 P(A program becomes an XPA-enabled server by defining named points of
-public access through which data and commands can be exchanged with
-other client programs \201and users\202.  Using standard TCP sockets as a
-transport mechanism, XPA supports both single-point and broadcast
-messaging to and from these servers.  It supports direct communication
-between clients and servers, or indirect communication via an
-intermediate message bus emulation program. Host-based access control
-is implemented, as is as the ability to communicate with XPA servers
-across a network.
-
-)0 P(XPA implements a layered interface that is designed to be useful both
-to software developers and to users.  The interface consists of a
-library of XPA client and server routines for use in C/C++ programs and
-a suite of high-level user programs built on top of these libraries.
-Using the XPA library, access points can be added to Tcl/Tk programs,
-Xt programs, or to Unix programs that use the XPA event loop or any
-event loop based on select\201\202.  Client access subroutines can be added
-to any Tcl/Tk, Xt, or Unix program. Client access also is supported at
-the command line via a suite of high-level programs.

-return 'yes' when you might not actually have access. This mode also
-always returns 'yes' for the xpans name server itself, regardless of
-whether the name server is active. The -c \201contact\202 switch, which

-Potential XPA race conditions and how to avoid them.
-
-
-)0 P(Currently, there is only one known circumstance in which XPA can get
-\201temporarily\202 deadlocked in a race condition: if two or more XPA
-servers send messages to one another using an XPA client routine such
-as XPASet\201\202, they can deadlock while each waits for the other server
-to respond.  \201This can happen if the servers call XPAPoll\201\202 with a
-time limit, and send messages in between the polling call.\202  The
-reason this happens is that both client routines send a string to the
-other server to establish the handshake and then wait for the server
-response. Since each client is waiting for a response, neither is able
-to enter its event-handling loop and respond to the other's
-request. This deadlock will continue until one of the timeout periods
-expire, at which point an error condition will be triggered and the
-timed-out server will return to its event loop.
-
-)0 P(Starting with version 2.1.6, this rare race condition can be
-avoided by setting the XPA_IOCALLSXPA environment variable for servers
-that will make client calls. Setting this variable causes all XPA
-socket IO calls to process outstanding XPA requests whenever the
-primary socket is not ready for IO. This means that a server making a
-client call will \201recursively\202 process incoming server requests while
-waiting for client completion. It also means that a server callback
-routine can handle incoming XPA messages if it makes its own XPA call.
-The semi-public routine oldvalue=XPAIOCallsXPA\201newvalue\202 can be used
-to turn this behavior off and on temporarily. Passing a 0 will turn
-off IO processing, 1 will turn it back on. The old value is returned
-by the call.
-
-)0 P(By default, the XPA_IOCALLSXPA option is turned off, because we judge
-that the added code complication and overhead involved will not be
-justified by the amount of its use.  Moreover, processing XPA requests
-within socket IO can lead to non-intuitive results, since incoming
-server requests will not necessarily be processed to completion in the
-order in which they are received.
-
-)0 P(Aside from setting XPA_IOCALLSXPA, the simplest way to avoid this race
-condition is to multi-process: when you want to send a client message,
-simply start a separate process to call the client routine, so that
-the server is not stopped. It probably is fastest and easiest to use
-fork\201\202 and then have the child call the client routine and exit. But
-you also can use either the system\201\202 or popen\201\202 routine to start one
-of the command line programs and do the same thing. Alternatively, you
-can use XPA's internal launch\201\202 routine instead of system\201\202. Based on
-fork\201\202 and exec\201\202, this routine is more secure than system\201\202 because
-it does not call /bin/sh.
-
-)0 P(Starting with version 2.1.5, you also can send an XPAInfo\201\202 message with
-the mode string "ack=false". This will cause the client to send a message
-to the server and then exit without waiting for any return message from
-the server. This UDP-like behavior will avoid the server deadlock when
-sending short XPAInfo messages.

-
-Firstly, the )EM(XPA_ACLFILE)ES( environment variable can defined to

-Secondly, if the )EM(XPA_ACLFILE)ES( does not exist, then a single

-
-)0 P(Note also when a client request is made to an XPA server, the access

-<H2><A NAME="xpamb">xpamb: the XPA Message Bus</A></H2>
-
-<!-- =section xpamb SYNOPSIS -->
-<H2>Summary</H2>
-<P>
-The xpamb program can act as a "classical" message bus interface
-between clients and servers. A client can send a data request to
-the message bus, which then interfaces with multiple servers and
-returns the data back to the client.
-
-<!-- =section xpamb DESCRIPTION -->
-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-A "classical" message bus (such as ToolTalk) consists of servers and
-clients, along with a mediating program that transfers data between
-different processes. XPA takes a slightly different approach in that
-communication between clients and servers is direct.  This generally
-is the correct technique when there is only one connection (or even a
-small number of connections), but can become inefficient for the
-serving program if a large amount of data is being transferred to many
-clients. For example, if a real-time data acquisition program is
-broadcasting a FITS image to several clients, it would need to
-transmit that image to each client individually.  This might interfere
-with its own processing cycles.  The preferable mechanism would be to
-pass the image off to an intermediate program that can then broadcast
-the data to the several clients.
-<P>
-The <B>xpamb</B> program can alleviate such problems by functioning
-as a message bus in cases where such an intermediary process is
-wanted.  It pre-defines a single access point named
-<B>XPAMB:xpamb</B> to which data can be sent for re-broadcast. You
-also can tell <B>xpamb</B> to save the data, and associate with that
-data a new access point, so that it can be retrieved later on.
-
-<P>
-All interaction with <B>xpamb</B> is performed through
-<B>xpaset</B> and <B>xpaget</B> (or the corresponding API
-routines, <B>XPASet()</B> and <B>XPAGet()</B>) to the
-<B>XPAMB:xpamb</B> access point. That is, <B>xpamb</B> is just
-another XPA-enabled program that responds to requests from
-clients. The paramlist is used to specify the targets to which
-the data will be for re-broadcast, as well as the re-broadcast paramlist:
-<PRE>
-  data | xpaset xpamb [switches] broadcast-target broadcast-paramlist
-</PRE>
-Optional switches are used to store data, and manipulate stored data,
-and are described below.
-
-<P>
-In its simplest form, you can, for example, send a FITS image to xpamb for
-broadcasting to all ds9 image simply by executing:
-<PRE>
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset xpamb "DS9:*" fits foo.fits
-</PRE>
-Since <B>DS9</B> is the class name for the ds9 image display
-program, this will result in the FITS image being re-sent to all fits
-access points for all active image display programs.
-
-<P>
-You can send stored data and new data to the same set of access points at
-the same time.  The stored data always is sent first, followed by the new
-data:
-<PRE>
-  cat foo2.fits | xpaset xpamb -send foo "DS9:*" fits foo.fits
-</PRE>
-will first send the foo.fits file, and then the foo2.fits file to all
-access points of class <B>DS9</B>.  Notice that in this example,
-the foo2.fits file is not stored, but it could be stored by using the
-<B>-store [name]</B> switch on the command line.
-
-<P>
-The <B>xpaget</B> command can be used to retrieve a data from XPA
-access points or from a stored data buffer, or retrieve information
-about a stored data buffer.  If no arguments are given:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpamb
-</PRE>
-then information about all currently stored data buffers is returned. This
-information includes the data and time at which the data was stored, the
-size in bytes of the data, and the supplied info string.
-
-<P>
-If arguments are specified, they will be in the form:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpamb [-info] [-data] [name [paramlist]]
-</PRE>
-If the optional <B>-info</B> and/or <B>-data</B> switches are specified, then
-information and/or data will be returned for the named data buffer
-following the switches. You can use either or both of these switches
-in a single command. For example, if the -info switch is used:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpamb -info foo
-</PRE>
-then the info about that stored data buffer will be returned.
-If the -data is used with a specific name:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpamb -data foo
-</PRE>
-then the stored data itself will be returned. If both are used:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpamb -info -data foo
-</PRE>
-then the info will be returned, followed by the data. Note that it is an
-error to specify one of these switches without a data buffer name and that
-the paramlist will be ignored.
-
-<P>
-If neither the <B>-info</B> or <B>-data</B> switch is specified, then
-the name refers to an XPA access point (with an optional paramlist
-following).
-For example:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpamb ds9 file
-</PRE>
-is equivalent to:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget ds9 file
-</PRE>
-
-<!-- =section xpamb OPTIONS -->
-<H2>Options</H2>
-<P>
-For xpaset, several optional switches are used to save data and
-manipulate the stored data:
-<DL>
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>-data [name]</B>
-<DD> Add the supplied data buffer to a pool of stored data buffers,
-using the specified name as a unique identifier for later retrieval.
-An error occurs if the name already exists (use either <B>replace</B>
-or <B>del</B> to rectify this). The <B>-add</B> switch is supported
-for backwards compatibility with xpa 2.0.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>-replace [name]</B>
-<DD> Replace previously existing stored data having the same unique name
-with new data. This essentially is a combination of the <B>del</B>
-and <B>data</B> commands.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>-info ["'info string'"]</B>
-<DD> When adding a data buffer, you can specify an informational
-string to be stored with that data.  This string will be returned
-by xpaget:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpamb foo -info
-</PRE>
-(along with other information such as the date/time of storage and the size of
-the data buffer) if the -info switch is specified. If the info string contains
-spaces, you must enclose it in <B>two</B> sets of quotes:
-<PRE>
-  cat foo | xpaset xpamb -data foo -info "'this is info on foo'"
-</PRE>
-The first set of quotes is removed by the shell while the second is used to
-delineate the info string.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>-send [name]</B>
-<DD> Broadcast the stored data buffer to the named template.
-
-<P>
-<DT><B>-del [name]</B>
-<DD> Delete the named data buffer and free all allocated space.
-</DL>
-
-<P>
-Switches can be used in any combination that makes sense. For example:
-<PRE>
-  cat foo.fits | xpaset xpamb -data foo -info "FITS" "DS9:*" fits foo.fits
-</PRE>
-will broadcast the foo.fits image to all access points of class
-<B>DS9</B>.  In addition, the foo.fits file will be stored under the
-name of <B>foo</B> for later manipulation such as:
-<PRE>
-  xpaset -p xpamb -send foo "DS9:*" fits foo.fits
-</PRE>
-will re-broadcast the foo.fits image to all access points of class "DS9".

-<P>
-The xpans name server is an XPA-enabled program that is used to
-manage the names and ports of XPA access points. It is started
-automatically when an XPA access point is registered. You can access
-the name server using xpaget to get a list of registered access points.
-<P>
-The <EM>xpans</EM> name server provides a crucial link between XPA
-clients and servers.  When an XPA server defines an access point using
-XPANew(), XPACmdNew(), or XPAInfoNew(), the name of the access point
-is registered in the name service, along with connection information.
-The name server then matches class:name templates passed to it by XPA
-clients with these registered entries, so that the clients can
-communicate with the appropriate servers.
-
-<P>
-The socket connection between an XPA-enabled program and
-<EM>xpans</EM> is kept open until the former exits (or explicitly
-closes the connection). Apparently, some Internet equipment (e.g. DSL
-modems) can cause such a connection to time-out after a period of
-inactivity. To prevent this from happening, you can use the <EM>-k
-[sec]</EM> switch to send a short keep-alive message to each open
-connection after the specified time delay. (Note that this
-application level use of keep-alive is necessary only if you are
-serving XPA-enabled clients over the Internet and have to deal with
-long-term connections involving DSL or similar equipment.  XPA uses
-the ordinary socket-level keep-alive, which works for all other cases.)
-<B>NB (12/2/2009): Out-of-band (URG) TCP data, used by xpans
-keep-alive, is changed by some Cisco routers into in-band data.
-Encountering such a router will break the keep-alive function and may
-break your XPA server as well. Proceed with caution!</B>
-
-<P>
-The <EM>xpans</EM> program will be started automatically (assuming it
-can be found in the user's path) when the first XPA access point is
-registered.  It therefore need not be started explicitly.  However,
-when started automatically, the <EM>-e</EM> switch is used, so that
-the name server will exit when there are no more XPA access points
-registered. If you wish to keep the name server running continually,
-simply start it manually without the <EM>-e</EM> switch.
-
-<P>
-The name server will keep a log of registered access points if the
-<EM>-l [log]</EM> switch is used on the command line (this is the
-case for automatic start-up).  The log contains enough name and connection
-information to allow you to re-register all XPA access points in case
-the name server process is terminated prematurely. For example, after
-the ds9 access point is registered,the log will contain the entry:
-<PRE>
-  add 838e2f67:1863 ds9 ds9 gs eric
-</PRE>
-If <EM>xpans</EM> is terminated but ds9 still is running, you
-can re-register both access points for the ds9 process by running:
-<PRE>
-  xpaset -p 838e2f67:1863 -nsconnect
-</PRE>
-Notice that the ip:port specifier is used with <EM>xpaset</EM> to bypass
-the need for contacting the name server (which does not have the name
-registered yet!)
-
-<P>
-The name server will keep a log of security information if the <EM>-s
-[security log]</EM> switch is used on the command line. For each
-accepted connection, (including connections via the <EM>xpaget</EM>
-command), information will be logged about the host issuing the
-command and the parameters passed into the program. This is most
-useful when <EM>xpans</EM> is accepting connections from untrusted
-machines.
-
-<P>
-When an XPA access point is removed by a server using <EM>XPAFree()</EM>,
-the access information is removed from the name server.  If an
-XPA-enabled process is terminated, all names registered by that process
-will be removed automatically.  The log file is always updated to
-reflect the currently registered access points.
-
-<P>
-The name server itself has an XPA access point names <EM>xpans</EM>
-registered through which you can find out information about currently
-registered access points (assuming you have access to the name server;
-see <A HREF="./acl.html">XPA Access Control</A> for more information).
-For each registered access point, the following information is returned:
-<PRE>
-  class		# class of the access point
-  name		# name of the access point
-  access	# allowed access (g=xpaget,s=xpaset,i=xpainfo)
-  id		# socket access method (host:port for inet, file for local/unix)
-  user		# user name of access point owner
-</PRE>
-
-<P>
-For example, to display all currently registered access points, simply execute:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpans
-</PRE>
-Continuing the example of ds9 above, this will return:
-<PRE>
-  DS9 ds9 gs 838e2f67:1863 eric
-</PRE>
-If the same program has been started with different XPA access names,
-you can look up only names matching a specified template. For example,
-assume that ds9 has been started up using:
-<PRE>
-  ds9 &
-  ds9 -title ds9-1-eric &
-  ds9 -title ds9-2-eric &
-</PRE>
-To lookup all ds9 access points which end in ".eric" and which can
-be accessed using <EM>xpaset</EM>, use:
-<PRE>
-  xpaget xpans "DS9:*.eric" "s" "*"
-</PRE>
-This will return:
-<PRE>
-  DS9 ds9-2-eric gs 838e29d3:42102 eric
-  DS9 ds9-1-eric gs 838e29d3:42105 eric
-</PRE>
-The third argument "*" requests all access points from all users.
-You also can specify a specific user name and only access points
-registered by that user will be returned.
-
-<P>
-The name server uses the <EM>XPA_METHOD</EM> environment variable
-to determine whether it should listen for requests on INET or LOCAL
-sockets.  Since XPA access points also use this environment variable,
-the choice of socket method will be consistent.  Note that, when INET
-sockets are used, a local server can be accessed from remote machines
-if the <EM>XPA_NSINET</EM> environment variable is set to point to
-the local machine.  See
-<A HREF="./env.html">XPA Environment Variables</A>
-for more information.

-<P>
-An experimental feature of xpans is its ability to act as a proxy to
-XPA servers behind firewalls that want to communicate with external
-processes.  The basic idea is the following: an XPA server (call it
-"foo") on host1, possibly behind a firewall, makes a remote connection
-to a proxy-enabled xpans program on host2 (specifying host2's XPA method).
-For example:
-<PRE>
-  xpaset -p foo -remote 'host2:28571' + -proxy   # on host1
-</PRE> 
-When this is done, host2 can use xpaset, xpaget, and xpainfo calls to
-communicate with the XPA server foo. All command communication is
-performed via the xpans socket connection between foo on host1 and
-xpans on host2 (which was initiated by foo from inside the firewall).
-Data communication is similarly performed using a socket connection
-initiated on host1 (usually with a port value two greater than the
-port value of the main xpans socket connection). An xpaset or xpaget
-call on host2 contacts xpans, which performs an XPASet() or XPAGet()
-call to foo, passing commands and data back and forth between the two
-programs.
-
-<P>
-By default, proxy connections are not allowed by xpans. If the -P switch is
-specified with a value of 1, proxy connection are allowed, but all proxy
-communication is performed in the same thread as xpans processing. If
-a value of 2 is specified, the proxy processing is performed in a
-separate thread (assuming pthreads are supported on your system).
-Because xpa callback processing of any type can take a long time and
-therefore can interfere with normal xpans processing, threaded proxy
-connections (-P 2) are recommended.  When using proxy connections, it
-might also be useful to set the XPA_IOCALLSXPA environment variable, so
-that multiple proxy requests can be handled at the same time, instead of
-serially.
-
-<P>
-Note that this proxy interface to xpans is experimental. It is used
-to provide remote data analysis capabilities on the Chandra-Ed system
-using ds9.  (See http://chandra-ed.cfa.harvard.edu and
-http://hea-www.harvard.edu/saord/ds9 for more details). As always, please
-contact us if you have problems or questions.

-Describes how XPA access points can be added to X Toolkit (Xt) programs.

-<H2>Description</H2>
-<P>
-XPA supports Xt programs: you can call XPANew(), XPACmdNew(), or
-XPAInfoNew() within any C routine to add XPA server callbacks to an Xt
-program.  Since an Xt program has its own event loop call (i.e.,
-XtAppMainLoop()), it therefore does not need or want to use the XPA
-even loop.  Thus, in order to add XPA access points to the standard Xt
-event loop, the following routine should be called before entering the
-loop:
-<PRE>
-  int XPAXtAddInput(XtAppContext app, XPA xpa)
-</PRE>
-<P>
-The XPAAddAddInput() routine will add XPA access points to the Xt event
-loop by making calls to the standard XtAppAddInput() routine. (If the
-XtAppContext argument is NULL, then the alternate XtAddInput() routine
-is used instead.)  If the xpa argument is NULL, then all active XPA
-access points are added to the loop.  If xpa is not NULL, then only
-the specified access point is added.  The latter type of call is used
-to add new access points from within a callback, after the program has
-entered the XtAppMainLoop() even loop.
