.SH SYNOPSIS
.B sslcat
[
.I host 
.I port 
.I args 
]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B sslcat 
connects via the IP[v4|v6] protocol to
.I host 
on 
.I port 
via TCP, and then attempts an SSL connection while
sending the data available on file descriptor 6 
to the server.
It prints any data it receives. 
.B sslcat 
can be used to transfer binary data. 
It does no conversion other than SSL encoding and decoding. 

If 
.I port 
is not supplied, 
.B sslcat 
uses TCP port 443 (HTTPS). 

If 
.I host 
is not supplied, 
.B sslcat 
connects to the local host. 

If
.I args 
are supplied, they are passed to 
.B sslclient 
unmodified.
