But for the survey, would you respond 350? Or the 60 or so that you are personally handling?
I.E. Did you respond 50-100 or over 100?
Dave,
Very good point, I responded over 100. Albeit other than scripts running checking up on things via stored keys, I bet I only manually login to 40-50 per month. I see where you were getting the incredulity reaction from now.

NAME
XPACode - Where to Find Example/Test Code
SYNOPSIS
The XPA source code directory contains two test programs, stest.c, and ctest.c that can serve as examples for writing XPA servers and
clients, respectively. They also can be used to test various features of XPA.
DESCRIPTION
To build the XPA test programs, execute:
make All
in the XPA source directory to generate the stest and ctest programs. (NB: this should work on all platforms, although we have had prob-
lems with unresolved externals on one Sun/Solaris machine, for reasons still unknown.)
The stest program can be executed with no arguments to start an XPA server that contains the access points: xpa, xpa1, c_xpa (containing
sub-commands cmd1 and cmd2), and i_xpa. You then can use xpaset and xpaget to interact with these access points:
cat xpa.c | xpaset xpa # send to xpa
cat xpa.c | xpaset "xpa*" # send to xpa and xpa1
xpaget xpa # receive from xpa
xpaget xpa* # receive from xpa and xpa1
etc. You also can use ctest to do the same thing, or to iterate:
ctest -s -l 100 xpa # send to xpa 100 times
ctest -s -l 100 "xpa*" # send to xpa and xpa1 100 times
ctest -g -l 100 xpa # receive from xpa 100 times
ctest -g -l 100 "xpa*" # receive from xpa and xpa1 100 times
More options are available: see the stest.c and ctest.c code itself, which were used extensively to debug XPA.
The file test.tcl in the XPA source directory gives examples for using the XPATclInterface.
