   Package: Rserve
   Version: 0.3-16
   Title: Binary R server
   Author: Simon Urbanek <Simon.Urbanek@math.uni-augsburg.de>
   Maintainer: Simon Urbanek <Simon.Urbanek@math.uni-augsburg.de>
   Depends: R (>= 1.5.0)
   Description: Rserve acts as a socket server (TCP/IP or local sockets) 
   	     which allows binary requests to be sent to R. Every
   	     connection has a separate workspace and working
   	     directory. Client-side implementations are available
   	     for popular languages such as C/C++ and Java, allowing
   	     any application to use facilities of R without the need of
   	     linking to R code. Rserve supports remote connection,
   	     user authentication and file transfer.
