POST parameter echo example
===========================
To try this example, you need GNU `make`, `git` and
[relx](https://github.com/erlware/relx) in your PATH.
To build the example, run the following command:
``` bash
$ make
```
To start the release in the foreground:
``` bash
$ ./_rel/bin/echo_post_example console
```
As this example echoes a POST parameter, it is a little more
complex to test. Some browsers feature tools that allow you
to perform one such request, or you can use the command line
tool `curl` as we will demonstrate.
