NAME
       hobbitd_sample - example of a hobbitd worker module

SYNOPSIS
       hobbitd_channel --channel=status hobbitd_sample [options]

DESCRIPTION
       hobbitd_sample is a worker module for hobbitd, and as such it is normally run via the hobbitd_channel(8) program. It receives messages from
       hobbitd via stdin, and simply displays these on stdout. It can be used with all types of hobbitd channels.

       hobbitd_sample is not designed to actually run, except as a demonstration.  The purpose of this tool is to show how hobbitd worker  modules
       can be implemented to handle different tasks that need to hook into the hobbitd processing.

OPTIONS
       --timeout=N
	      Read messages with a timeout of N seconds.

       --debug
	      Enable debugging output.
