Lick Examples

%receipt

Below is an example of an application that spins up a lick port on its init call. When it recieves a %connected soak it subscribes to %rumors. whenever a %rumor is recieved it will spit it out to the Lick port and which will forward it to a reciept printer. When the receipt printer disconnects the application will unsubscribe to %rumors and wait.
