socat 1.8.0.0-1

[Andrew Schulman]

socat 1.8.0.0-1 is now available in Cygwin. This release has several new
features and bug fixes. See the What's New section[1] and CHANGES file[2]
for details.

socat is a relay for bidirectional data transfer between two independent
data channels. Each channel may be a file, pipe, device (serial line etc.
or a pseudo terminal), a socket (UNIX, IP4, IP6 - raw, UDP, TCP), an SSL
socket, proxy CONNECT connection, a file descriptor (stdin etc.), the GNU
line editor (readline), a program, or a combination of two of these. These
modes include generation of 'listening' sockets, named pipes, and pseudo
terminals.
