Controlling data flow using sluice

Earlier this year I was instrumenting wifi power consumption and needed a way to produce and also consume data at a specific rate to pipe over netcat for my measurements.  I had some older crufty code around to do this but it needed some polishing up so I eventually got around to turning this into a more usable tool called "sluice".  (A sluice gate controls flow of water,  the sluice tool controls rate of data though a pipe).

The sluice package is currently available in PPA:colin-king/white and is built for Ubuntu Trusty, Utopic and Vivid, but there the git repository and tarballs are available too if one wants to build this from source.
