11
This wrapper takes the place of a game client and server. Its task is to manage
 
12
different file descriptors than the one which are normally used.
 
13
The GGZ servers and clients do currently communicate using fd 3, so a call to:

\fBggzwrap \-\-fdin=3 \-\-fdout=3 \-\-exec=gameserver\fR

would be equivalent to calling the server directly. However, there are games
 
18
which communicate using the standard input/output facilities, so they need a
 
19
redirection like:

The \fI\-\-convert\fR option tries to automatically convert strings from network format
 
24
to host format (more correctly, from libggz's easysock format to the normal
 
25
null-terminated one).
