#include <rpcsvc/rex.h>

DESCRIPTION

RPC INFO

program number:
	REXPROG
xdr routines:
	int xdr_rex_start(xdrs, start);
		XDR *xdrs;
		struct rex_start *start;
	int  xdr_rex_result(xdrs, result);
		XDR *xdrs;
		struct rex_result *result;
	int xdr_rex_ttymode(xdrs, mode);
		XDR *xdrs;
		struct rex_ttymode *mode;
	int xdr_rex_ttysize(xdrs, size);
		XDR *xdrs;
		struct ttysize *size;
procs:
	REXPROC_START
		Takes rex_start structure, starts a command executing,
		and returns a rex_result structure.
	REXPROC_WAIT
		Takes no arguments, waits for a command to finish executing,
		and returns a rex_result structure.
	REXPROC_MODES
		Takes a rex_ttymode structure, and sends the tty modes.
	REXPROC_WINCH
		Takes a ttysize structure, and sends window size information.
versions:
	REXVERS_ORIG
		Original version
