/* DESCRIPTION
/*	This module implements a client for a simple attribute-based
/*	protocol. The default protocol is described in attr_scan_plain(3).
/*
/*	attr_clnt_create() creates a client handle. See auto_clnt(3) for
/*	a description of the arguments.
/*
/*	attr_clnt_request() sends the specified request attributes and
/*	receives a reply. The reply argument specifies a name-value table.
/*	The other arguments are as described in attr_print_plain(3). The
/*	result is the number of attributes received or -1 in case of trouble.
/*
/*	attr_clnt_free() destroys a client handle and closes its connection.
/*
/*	attr_clnt_control() allows the user to fine tune the behavior of
/*	the specified client. The arguments are a list of (name, value)
/*	terminated with ATTR_CLNT_CTL_END.
/*	The following lists the names and the types of the corresponding
/*	value arguments.
/* .IP "ATTR_CLNT_CTL_PROTO(ATTR_CLNT_PRINT_FN, ATTR_CLNT_SCAN_FN)"
/*	Specifies alternatives for the attr_plain_print() and
/*	attr_plain_scan() functions.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Warnings: communication failure.
