Basically i tried using netcat and telnet for sending binary messages and for usage inside a script ect.
tldr: i thought they were bad.
So i made my own version. I know that some people will say:
“wtf this does not deserve it’s own website”
“lol it’s a single script”
my response to 1 is i like making websites and 2 yeah it’s still better than the other tools.
I just made it so it obviously doesn’t have all features i probably will add later but anyways:
Thoughts?
Have you tried socat?
Just had a read of the source, nice.
If its useful to you, that’s all that counts. And even if it isn’t, playing with socket programming was probably something new.
Cheers for posting it.
As a suggested feature, maybe add a “Receive” mode where you can run it on the command line to bind to an arbitrary IP/port, have it listen and display the output received and enable you to send data back. Could be a useful diagnostic tool… 
I can see that being useful for seeing what a client application actually gets sent through a content filtering/sanitising firewall for diagnostic purposes.
It does have have that though… It’s the -l option, read the README.md
This is really nice and useful for my line of work. I already added it to my “debug toolbox”.
nice, somebody likes my software
Ah my bad, i just skimmed the source and didn’t see it 
So I’m just gonna clean some things up.
remove your posts then

Wait why the fuck do you need to look in the source. There is literally a readme on the GitHub and on the webpage.
It is good practice to review source before you use it for security reasons
Sure I guess but what if it was a closed source binary. Are you going to look for suspicious syscalls in the machine instructions or…
Maybe not use it? Depends on application.
What’s the problem with inspecting code when it’s available?
Because you do.
No, there isn’t a problem but when you want to know how to use a program you do not read the entire fucking source code do you. No you read the readme.
Nice explanation you derogatory term. Install Gentoo.
Let’s not get belligerent now @Full_Nitrous
It’s not cool to be aggressive and insulting like this:
