Detailed Description

High level network layer for config object transport.

This module provides high level network access using an API similar to sockets, but primarily for the transport of config objects. This is how the games protocols work - data is sent via config objects.

A client would create a manager object to initialize the network layer, connect(), and then send_data(). A server would create a server_manager object, then accept_connection(), and finally receive_data().
