DESCRIPTION

This program is meant to inject a single message into a Stem Hub. You set the Cell address with the command line options and then which command to execute in that Cell. If you don't set a command, then a data message will be sent. You can send data in the message as well.

If the Cell generates a response message, then its data will be printed on stdout.

If the -ack option is set, then the message will have the ack_req flag will be set in the outgoing message. This will cause an 'ack' type message to be sent back after the original message has been delivered. This is meant for when you send a message to a Cell which doesn't generate a response. It lets this program know that it can exit.
