--- A tiny implementation of the Netware Core Protocol (NCP).
-- While NCP was originally a Netware only protocol it's now present on
-- both Linux and Windows platforms running Novell eDirectory.
--
-- The library implements a small amount of NCP functions based on various
-- packet dumps generated by Novell software, such as the Novell Client and
-- Console One. The functions are mainly used for enumeration and discovery
--
-- The library implements a number of different classes where the Helper is
-- the one that should be the easiest to use from scripts.
--
-- The following classes exist:
--
-- * Packet
--		- Implements functions for creating and serializing a NCP packet
--
-- * ResponseParser
--		- A static class containing a bunch of functions to decode server
--		  responses
--
-- * Response
--		- Class responsible for decoding NCP responses
--
-- * NCP
--		- Contains the "native" NCP functions sending the actual request to the
--		  server.
-- 
-- * Socket
--		- A buffered socket implementation
--
-- * Helper
--		- The prefered script interface to the library containing functions
--		  that wrap functions from the NCP class using more descriptive names
--		  and easier interface.
--
-- * Util
--		- A class containing mostly decoding and helper functions
--
-- The following example code illustrates how to use the Helper class from a
-- script. The example queries the server for all User objects from the root.
--
-- <code>
--	local helper = ncp.Helper:new(host,port)
--	local status, resp = helper:connect()
--	status, resp = helper:search("[Root]", "User", "*")
--	status = helper:close()
-- </code>
