Description-en: Smart card reader driver for PCSC-lite
vpcd allows smart card applications to access the vpicc through
the PC/SC API. By default vpcd opens slots for communication with
multiple vpicc's on localhost on port 35963 and port 35964.
.
The |vpicc| does not need to run on the same machine as the vpcd,
and can connect over the internet for example.
