This is horrible code :/

Try these instead:
 * UDPServer ->
http://trac.softcircuit.com.au/circuits/browser/examples/udpserver.py
 * UDPClient  ->
http://trac.softcircuit.com.au/circuits/browser/examples/udpclient.py

Example usage
----------------------

~/circuits/examples
$ ./udpserver.py
127.0.0.1, 9000:
test
127.0.0.1, 9000:
hi

~/circuits/examples
$ ./udpclient.py -b 127.0.0.1:9000 127.0.0.1:8000
test
127.0.0.1, 8000:
test
hi
127.0.0.1, 8000:
hi

You can download circuits from http://trac.softcircuit.com.au/circuits/
or get the latest development version by using Mercurial (1):
hg clone http://hg.softcircuit.com.au/projects/circuits/
