;;;; Trivial SEXP server.

;; BIG FAT WARNING!!!!
;; safe-read is subject to DoS attacks whereby attackers force the server
;; to intern a lot of useless symbols until it runs out of memory.
;; THIS NOT FOR USE IN THE WILD! Only on safe (virtual) private networks.
;;
;; If you want a robust server, you'll have to supply your own robust parser.
;; And handle all kind of weird issues such as handling character encoding,
;; not to speak about avoiding extra consing for performance.
;; I recommend then trying UDF-A.
