# Usage:  python xmlrpc_test2.py command [params...]
#
# python script for sending an xmlrpc command to ser's xmlrpc module.
# This script uses python xmlrpclib directly and expects the remote side to
# immediately close the connection after answering (broken xmlrpclib
# behaviour).
# There are 2 way to make it work with ser xmlrpc module: define a
# better transport class (that's what the xmlrpc_test.py script is doing) or
# change ser xmlrpc route so that it will close the connection after each
# processes xmlrpc request (e.g. add a drop -1 at the end).
#
# See also: xmlrpc_test.py (better version, using a redefined transport class).
