+## 4. Daemon pool
+
+This package includes a purpose-specific implementation:
+- `master` pushes a pool of daemons (infinite scripts echoing things over time) bound to a pool receiver.
+- `pool` waits for daemons to be started to bind input buffers.
+
+### Pool receiver
+
+The `pool` commands allows you to wait for daemons on a port.
+
+```bash
+pool $key $port
+```
+
+*Arguments:*
+- `$key` is the key for the pool receiver, the _master_ must match it in order for the communication to be validated.
+- `$port` is the number of the local port to listen on (between 1024 and 49151).
+
+*Execution:*
+1. Waits for incoming _daemon_request_ from `master` (asks for binding an input for a daemon). If  the *END message* is received, stop listening and wait for background bindings to stop.
+2. For each daemon, open a free port (`bind-input` in background), then return its number to the `master`
+
+*Signals:*
+- If one of these signals: SIGHUP, SIGTERM, SIGINT is received, all processes, sockets and background routines will be properly (recursively) stopped.
+- You **must avoid SIGKILL**, because nothing can be triggered (by definition), so all sockets and binding will remain active.
+
+
+### Pool creator (master)
+
+The `master` commands allows you to bind daemons output to another machine.
+
+```bash
+master $key $host $port $ddir
+```
+
+*Arguments:*
+- `$key` is the key for the pool receiver, if it does not match, it won't work.
+- `$host` is the hostname (IP addr. or resolvable) of the machine powering the `pool` receiver.
+- `$port` is the number of the remote port the pool is listening on (between 1024 and 49151).
+- `$ddir` is the directory containing the daemon files (must be executable).
+
+*Execution:*
+1. Send _daemon_request_ for each daemon, when open port received, start daemon in background bound to output on `$host`
+2. Send the *END message*
+3. Wait for daemons and output to end
+
+*Signals:*
+- If one of these signals: SIGHUP, SIGTERM, SIGINT is received, all processes, sockets and background routines will be properly (recursively) stopped.
+- You **must avoid SIGKILL**, because nothing can be triggered (by definition), so all sockets and binding will remain active.
+
+
+
+
+*Exemple master-pool:*
+
+Let's say the master has 2 daemons: _dem1_ and _dem2_. Both contains a while loop echoing something each second. In this example, the key is "**k12**".
