<address> is IPv4 address, like 127.0.0.1
This is the address where client(s) are going to connect.

If you use 127.0.0.1 as <address>, only clients running on the same computer
as nocheto will be able to connect to it.

If you use 0.0.0.0 as <address>, clients can connect through any of your
computer's network card (if used <port> is not blocked by any firewall).

You can also use IP address for a specific card to allow connection only
through that card. On Linux, you can get IP adresses of your computer's
network cards by `ip -4 address` command.

<port> is a number between 1023 and 65535. It is used by client to connect to
the server. It must be unique on your computer (no other application can use
the same port at the same time).

If you want to connect to a given port from a different computer than
nocheto is running on, that port must not be blocked by any firewall.


WARNING: If you use any othrer than 127.0.0.1 IP address and <port> is not
blocked by a firewall, anyone from the internet who runs nochetoclinet with
your IP address and correct <port> before you can connect to your nocheto
server and see your open game(s)!

http command starts HTTP server on given IP <address> and <port>.
See `http! ipv4` command for more information about <address> and <port>.

WARNING: If you use any othrer than 127.0.0.1 IP address and <port> is not
blocked by a firewall, anyone from the internet could connect to the HTTP
server and see all data managed by nocheto!

Configuration section for HTTP server:

[http]
port = 8080
address = "127.0.0.1"
whitelist = "new;move;flipboard;uu;redo;r;r<;r<<;r>;goto;cut;delete;branchup;loadresults;lr;hint;analyze;nag;setnag;comment;bcomment;level;seconds;autoplay;setoption;board;b;undo;u;moves;play;p;switchsounds;fen;tag;quit;stop;speach;echo"

<addr> is IP address, like 127.0.0.1 and <port> is a port number.
You can use * instead of <addr> and/or <port> to tareget all
addresses/ports.
Use listipv4 and listhttp commands to see clients addresses and ports.

`help` command lists groups of commands.

`help <group-key>`
After every group name there is a group-key you can use as argument with help
command to show help for commands in that group only. For example:

help help

- shows help for commands from the `Help Commands` group only.

`help!` command shows help for all commands at once.

`help! <key>` command shows (more detailed) help for the commands under
the given <key>.

`help!! [<group-key>]` command list commands with keys you can use with
`help! <key>` command.
It lists only commands which have an extra help text.

`help <group-key> <command>` works as `help! <command>` (as long as the
<command> is in the <group>).
