15 STDIN/STDOUT.
16
18 -u, --udid UDID
19 Target specific device by UDID. Note that if this option is not
20 specified, inetcat will connect to the first device found.
21
22 -n, --network
23 Connect to network device. The device needs to have WiFi sync
24 enabled and needs to be paired with this computer for this to
25 work. Please note that a device might close connections at any
26 time to save power. This option will make inetcat connect to
27 network attched devices only, unless -l is passed too (see
28 below).
29
30 -l, --local
31 Connect to USB device. This is the default if no option is
32 passed. If used together with -n, inetcat will first attempt a
33 connection to a device attached via USB, and if not available
34 attempt to reach a device via network.
