/***
 * This is an example program demonstrating how to use the EchoTCPClient
 * and EchoUDPClient classes.  This program connects to the default echo
 * service port of a specified server, then reads lines from standard
 * input, writing them to the echo server, and then printing the echo.
 * The default is to use the TCP port.  Use the -udp flag to use the UDP
 * port.
 * <p>
 * Usage: echo [-udp] <hostname>
