This program is a much more convient version of the ttcp program.
It uses inetd (or simulates its behaviour) to start off the remote
side program which will send/receive data. Both sides measure the time
and number of bytes transfered. The local side will print the measures.
The format of the output can be specified on the commandline.

[REPOCOPY WAITING] ports/net/nttcp and ports/net/ttcp appear miscategorized
Julian Elischer suggested a new category "net/benchmarks" because
he believes that too many ports are listed under net/. Checking
into it, I noticed that these two ports are described as
benchmarking programs. In the Porters' Handbook, the net
category is described as "miscellaneous networking software".
The benchmarks category seems more specific so I feel that it
is preferable.
