Description
file2dgr uses DGR to send nbrOfCycles copies of the text of the file named fileName to the dgr2file
process running on the computer identified by remoteHostName. If not specified (or if less than 1),
nbrOfCycles defaults to 1. After sending all lines of the file, file2dgr sends a datagram containing an
EOF string (the ASCII text "*** End of the file ***") before reopening the file and starting transmission
of the next copy.
When all copies of the file have been sent, file2dgr prints a performance report:
Bytes sent = I<byteCount>, usec elapsed = I<elapsedTime>.
Sending I<dataRate> bits per second.
