+Ranch TCP Reverse
+=================
+
+This example uses a gen_server to handle a protocol to revese input. See
+reverse_protocol.erl for the implementation, and documentation at
+the following URL:
+
+http://ninenines.eu/docs/en/ranch/HEAD/guide/protocols/#using_gen_server
+
+To build the example:
+``` bash
+$ make
+```
+
+To start the release in the foreground:
+
+``` bash
+$ ./_rel/bin/tcp_reverse_example console
+```
+
+Then start a telnet session to port 5555:
+``` bash
+$ telnet localhost 5555
+```
+
+Type in a few words and see them reversed! Amazing!
+
+Be aware that there is a timeout of 5 seconds without receiving
+data before the example server disconnects your session.
