 # baecun
 
-baecun is a Rust-based command-line tool that constructs and sends specially formatted frames to an AGWPE server over TCP. It supports unproto frames with and without digipeaters and provides some validation for IP addresses, ports, callsigns, and channel numbers. This tool was written as an exercise to both learn and be able to teach the building blocks of both rust idomatic programming and writing a simple unproto AGWPE TX client.
