+%% An example Diameter client that can sends base protocol RAR
+%% requests to a connected peer.
+%%
+%% The simplest usage is as follows this to connect to a server
+%% listening on the default port on the local host, assuming diameter
+%% is already started (eg. diameter:start()).
+%%
+%%   client:start().
+%%   client:connect(tcp).
+%%   client:call().
+%%
+%% The first call starts the a service with the default name of
+%% ?MODULE, the second defines a connecting transport that results in
+%% a connection to the peer (if it's listening), the third sends it a
+%% RAR and returns the answer.
