15-441 Project 1 -- Checkpoint 2

For Checkpoint 2, you must have a functioning echo server. The server should:

1. Accept multiple connections from different clients.
2. Send each line received from a client back to that client.
3. Avoid blocking; one client entering part of a line should not prevent the server from reading and echoing a line to another client.
4. Handle overly-long lines gracefully (preferably by truncating); if a client connects and sends a continuous stream of characters with no newlines, your server must not crash, and should continue processing lines once a newline is encountered.

Once you believe you have completed these requirements, use the checkpoint2 script which is the same exact script we will run to grade you.
