Perl TCP Listener

As a note to self, comes in handy whenever you're missing netcat:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use IO::Socket; 
use Net::hostent;              
$PORT = 6379;

$server = IO::Socket::INET->new( Proto     => 'tcp',
                                 LocalPort => $PORT,
                                 Listen    => 5,
                                 Reuse     => 1) or die "can't setup server" unless $server;

print "SERVER Waiting for client connection on port $PORT\n";

 while ($client = $server->accept()) {
  $client->autoflush(1);
  while ( <$client> ) {
    if (/quit|exit/i) { exit; }                           
    else { print $_;}
  }
  close $client; 
}
