Disconnect on one end of the pipe breaks the connection to the other end. -connect mode forever attempts to reconnect with 5 second interval between attempts.

Install

Example

you have a faulty PHP application and you want to debug it with xdebug
xdebug can connect to your machine:9000, but you are behind NAT
so you run meetup -listen1=:9000 -listen2=:9001 on the application server
and another meetup -connect1=appserver:9001 -connect=localhost:9000 on your machine First instance listens two ports and when a connection arrives on both, it creates a bidirectional buffered pipe between the two. The other instance connects to first meetup on appserver:9001 and also to your local IDE :9000 and likewise pipes data in both directions.
