+# Minitel for KittenOS NEO
+This package includes the Minitel service, in apps/svc-minitel.lua, and the net library, in libs/net.lua.
+
+## Minitel service
+
+The Minitel service provides packet sending and receiving abilities.
+
+### Installation
+
+1. Place apps/svc-minitel.lua into `NEO Disk/apps/svc-minitel.lua`
+2. Set the preference run.svc-minitel to "yes"
+
+## Net library
+
+The net library provides an easy way of interacting with the minitel service, and implements higher-level features of the stack.
+
+### Installation
+
+Place libs/net.lua into `NEO Disk/libs/net.lua`
+
+### Usage
+
+Due to how KittenOS's security model works, you have to initialise the library in an unusual way:
+
+```
+local minitel = neo.requireAccess("x.svc.minitel","minitel daemon access")
+local computer = neo.requireAccess("k.computer","pushing packets")
+local event = require("event")(neo)
+
+local net = require("net")(event,computer,minitel)
+```
+
+This gives access to the event API, computer API and Minitel service to the net library.
+
+### API
+
+Being a direct port of the OpenOS version, the API is the same.
+
+#### Layer 3
+
+*net.genPacketID()* - returns a string of random data
+
+*net.usend(host, port, data, pid)* - Sends an unreliable packet to *host* on *port* containing *data*, optionally with the packet ID *pid*.
+
+*net.rsend(host, port, data)* - Sends a reliable packet to *host* on *port* containing *data*.
+
+#### Layer 4
+
+*net.send(host, port, data)* - Sends *data* reliably and in order to *host* on *port*.
+
+#### Layer 5
+
+*net.open(to,port)* - Establishes a stream to *host* on *port* and returns a stream object
+
+*net.listen(port)* - Waits for another node to establish a stream, and returns the stream object.
+
+#### Stream objects
+
+*stream:write(data)* - Sends *data* to the node at the other end of the stream
+
+*stream:read(length)* - Reads data from the stream, up to *length* bytes.
+
+*stream:close()* - Ends the stream and prevents further writing.
+
+#### Variables
+
+*net.mtu = 4096* - The maximum length of the data portion of a packet for *net.send*
+
+*net.streamdelay = 60* - The time, in seconds, *net.open* will wait for a response while trying to establish a connection.
+
+*net.minport = 32768* - The lowest port *net.listen* will allocate to a new connection.
+
+*net.maxport = 65535* - The highest port *net.listen* will allocate to a new connection.
