..  ;o) the quickie is ' netcat -h ' but 'zless \
/usr/share/doc/netcat/README.gz' is entertaining enough 
to warrant reading anyway,   'man netcat' less so, but all 3 
should get you going.

..if you find you cannot get beyond 320x240, and can live with
hardcoding it,  you can cvs co and recompile all of FG, in your
$CVS-ROOT/SimGear-0.3/source/simgear/screen/jpgfactory.hxx
find and edit:
        typedef enum {
            DEFAULT_XS = 320,
            DEFAULT_YS = 240
        } JPG_FACTORY_ENUM;

..the  --prop:name=value approach should work too, but I see no 
hint of ' --prop:jpg-httpd-size=WxH ' in the property tree on
FG-0.9.10.

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
