/**
 * A connection to a running instance of FlightGear.
 *
 * <p>This class currently uses the FlightGear telnet interface,
 * though it may be modified to use a different TCP/IP interface in
 * the future.  Client applications can use this library to examine
 * and modify internal FlightGear properties.</p>
 *
 * <p>To start FlightGear with the telnet server activated, use a
 * command like this (to listen on port 9000):</p>
 *
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * fgfs --telnet=9000
 * </pre></blockquote>
 *
 * <p>Then create a connection to FlightGear from your Java client
 * application:</p>
 *
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * FGFSConnection fgfs = new FGFSConnection("localhost", 9000);
 * </pre></blockquote>
 *
 * <p>Now you can use the connection to get and set FlightGear
 * properties:</p>
 *
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * double altitude = fgfs.getDouble("/position/altitude-ft");
 * fgfs.setDouble("/orientation/heading", 270.0);
 * </pre></blockquote>
 *
 * <p>All methods that communicate directly with FlightGear are
 * synchronized, since they must work over a single telnet
 * connection.</p>
 *
 * String host = jTextField1.getText();
        int port = Integer.parseInt(jTextField2.getText());

        try {
            FGFSConnection fgfs = new FGFSConnection(host, port);
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(Connect.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
 *
