     DIAL(1)                                                   DIAL(1)

     NAME
          dial - connect to a remote service

     SYNOPSIS
          dial [ -e ] addr

     DESCRIPTION
          Dial connects to the network address addr (see dial(3)) and
          then copies data from the connection to standard output, and
          from standard input to the connection.

          By default, dial exits when end of file is reached on stan-
          dard input or on the network connection.  The -e flag causes
          dial to exit only in response to end of file on the network
          connection.
