 remote command interpreter  This is a remote command interpreter on a TCP LON-CAPA network layer.
   It accepts and processes incoming requests from other LON-CAPA machines
   on the network.  lond's functionality is self-contained in the sense
   that it does not reference (import, require, use) any other file
   described in this document.  There are only 15 subroutines in this
   script, however the <TT>make_new_child</TT> subroutine is quite
   complex since it parses and responds about 29 different types of 
   network requests (i.e. enc, ping, pong, ekey, load, auth, passwd,
   makeuser, home, update, unsub, sub, log, put, rolesput, get, eget,
   del, keys, dump, store, restore, querysend, queryreply, idput, idget,
   tmpput, tmpget, and ls).

 roles picking  This perl handling module reads in the available roles available
   for a LON-CAPA user (different courses, different privileges, etc)
   and produces a form-element HTML page which allows the user to select
   which role he wishes to exercise in the LON-CAPA system.  For instance,
   a user may want to select between being a student in a thermodynamics
   physics course or a teaching assistant for an introductory calculus
   class.

 interface to lonc  This file is an interface to the lonc processes of the LON-CAPA network
   as well as set of elaborated functions for handling information necessary
   for navigating through a given cluster of LON-CAPA machines within a domain.
   There are over 40 specialized functions in this module which handle
   the reading and transmission of metadata, user information
   (ids, names, environments, roles, logs), file information (storage, reading,
   directories, extensions, replication, embedded styles and descriptors),
   educational resources (course descriptions, section names and numbers),
   url hashing (to assign roles on a url basis), and translating abbreviated
   symbols to and from more descriptive phrases or explanations.
