 This is a demo of some (basic) client / server functionality.
 Run BudaClient.java for the Client and BudaServer.java for the Server. Everything connects locally via port 8090
 
+The client reads from the console input and sends that to the server. The Server generally reads messages in five characters (so a text-based protocol could be based on commands of five characters).
+
+The server can connect to an arbitrary number of clients.
+
 Type "Name:Jonas B." to change the client's name to Jonas B (the "." is where the name stops).
 
 Type "Names" for the Server to display everyone who is connected along with their name (if they have set a name).
