Shpirn is a tool that enables multiple userland programs to communicate with the parport (default lp0) in IO mode. It utilizes a basic networking protocol to manage connections and disseminate status updates to clients.
This utility is particularly useful because changes in the status of the parport are "broadcasted" to all clients, so they are always up-to-date with any changes that occur. This feature ensures that all programs can access the parport at any time without the risk of data conflicts or errors.
Overall, Shpirn is a great tool that ensures smooth communication between multiple programs and the parport, thanks to its simple network protocol and status notification system. Its easy-to-use interface and robust features make it an excellent choice for managing parallel port communications.
