Description-en: SLIP/PPP emulator using a dial up shell account
Slirp is a TCP/IP emulator which turns an ordinary shell account
into a (C)SLIP/PPP account. This allows shell users to use all the
funky Internet applications like Netscape, Mosaic, CUSeeMe, etc.
.
Please note that maybe your ISP really doesn't like you using slirp,
because they want to charge more for a ppp connection, so use it at
your own risk.
