 # Send/receive UDP multicast packets.
 # Requires that your OS kernel supports IP multicast.
-# This is built-in on SGI, still optional for most other vendors.
 #
 # Usage:
-#   mcast -s (sender)
-#   mcast -b (sender, using broadcast instead multicast)
-#   mcast    (receivers)
+#   mcast -s (sender, IPv4)
+#   mcast -s -6 (sender, IPv6)
+#   mcast    (receivers, IPv4)
+#   mcast  -6  (receivers, IPv6)
