Ruby library and command line utils for multicasting

This project is very young so some things might not work.

gem install multicast

mclisten -g 224.0.1.33 -p 4567

listener = Multicast::Listener.new(:group => "224.0.1.33", :port => 4567)
listener.listen do |message|
  puts "---> [#{message.hostname} / #{message.ip}:#{message.port} (#{message.message.size} bytes)] #{message.message}"
end

mcsend -g 224.0.1.33 -p 4567 -m "Multicasting like a champ"

sender = Multicast::Sender.new(:group => "224.0.1.33", :port => 4567)
sender.send("Multicasting like a champ")
