+xpaaccess returns \*(L"yes\*(R" to stdout (with a return error code if 1) if there are
+existing \s-1XPA\s0 access points that match the
+template
+(and optional access type: g,i,s). Otherwise, it returns \*(L"no\*(R" (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.
+.PP
+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 \s-1XPA\s0 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 \s-1XPA\s0 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 \s-1XPA_LONG_TIMEOUT\s0, 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 \*(L"short,long\*(R" switch. For
+example, to shorten the delay time to 2 seconds, use:
+.PP
+.Vb 1
+\& xpaaccess \-c \-t "2,2" ds9
+.Ve
+.PP
+The first argument is the short delay value, and is ignored in this
+operation. The second is the long delay timeout.
+.PP
+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.
