DESCRIPTION
XMLRPCsh.pl is a shell for making XMLRPC calls. It takes
one parameter, endpoint (actually it will tell you about
it if you try to run it). Additional commands can follow.
After that you'll be able to run any methods of XML
RPC::Lite, like autotype, readable, etc. You can run it
the same way as you do it in your Perl script. You'll see
output from method, result of XMLRPC call, detailed info
on XMLRPC faulure or transport error.
For full list of available methods see documentation for
XMLRPC::Lite.
Along with methods of XMLRPC::Lite you'll be able (and
that's much more interesting) run any XMLRPC methods you
know about on remote server and see processed results. You
can even switch on debugging (with call something like:
"on_debug(sub{print@_})") and see XMLRPC code with headers
sent and recieved.
