libsockets

Takes care of all needed repetitive low-level initialization and allows you to quickly create the following types of sockets:

* TCP server
* TCP client
* UDP unicast producer
* UDP unicast consumer
* UDP multicast producer
* UDP multicast consumer
* CAN socket (Linux only)

CLI programs:
* broadcast-hear - tests for incoming unicast/multicast traffic;
* broadcast-roar - continuously sends user-specified unicast/multicast messages;
* recast - converts unicast to multicast (and vice-versa) packets;
* cancom - communicate over CAN bus (generate/send/receive messages, ping other nodes).

Features

Has bindings for Common Lisp and can be used instead of 'usocket'
Has SocketCAN bindings for GNU Smalltalk and TCL
