VXI11-Client version 0.01
=========================
This module is a wrapper around a C library that uses libc's built in
Sun RPC support to talk to VXI11 networked instruments.
It supports only one instrument at a time.
Interrupts work by creating the interrupt channel, enabling interrupts
and then using wait_for_interrupt() to wait for an interrupt to happen.
wait_for_interrupt() blocks until a interrupt happens or a timeout occurs.
If an interrupt happens before it is called it returns immediately.
If multiple interrupts happen before it is called it will return immediately
until all the fired interrupts are cleared.
Return codes work like this;
1 - is a success
0 - means the request failed locally, the state inside the client is
incorrect, i.e. calling to enable interrupts before creating the channel
or that the server couldn't be contacted
< 0 - Any negative value is the negated VXI-11 error code from the server
The only exceptions to this are the read and write methods
0 - Error as above or zero bytes read/written
> 0 - Number of bytes read/written
