#  P2P: options
#
#  This code manages option settings within all of the programs in the
#  peer to peer job management system.  Options are soft-coded
#  parameters controlling things like how many peers each node should
#  be connected to.

#  OPTIONS
#  These options get the worker started, but new option settings
#  some from the authority after this worker first connects.

#  USAGE:  p2p::options register <name> <defaultValue>
#  USAGE:  p2p::options set <name> <newValue>
#  USAGE:  p2p::options get <name>
#
#  Use these commands to register and get/set various option settings
#  used within these programs.  The option settings start with default
#  values but can be overridden at any point, for example by the
#  "authority" program.
