+When invoked, this server will write a short integer to stdout, indiciating on
+which port the server is listening. It will then read one integer from stdin,
+indiciating the response code to be sent in response to a request. It also reads
+8 characters from stdin, which, after having "\r\n" appended, will form the
+response body in a successful response (one with code 200). The server will
+process one HTTP request, deliver the prearranged response to the client, and
+write the entire request to stdout. It will then terminate.
 
 This server is written in Python since it provides a simple HTTP stack, and
 because parsing Chunked encoding is safer and easier in a memory-safe language.
