#### A `gping`-style latency grapher over plain UDP echo (RFC 862) instead of ICMP.

How it works

* Every `--interval` ms, a packet containing a fresh GUID (16 bytes) is
  sent to `<host>:<port>`.
* When a reply arrives, its 16-byte payload is matched back to the GUID
  that was sent, and the elapsed time is the round-trip time.
* A packet with no reply within `--timeout` ms counts as dropped.
* Time is divided into `--display-interval` ms **ticks**. Every packet belongs to the tick
  it was **sent** in (not the tick its reply lands in), so a tick's
  column keeps updating with new data even after later ticks have
  already appeared on screen - a late reply, or a drop, can still land
  a mark on a column that's scrolled a few positions to the left.

> **Note:** the target must actually run a UDP echo service that sends
> back exactly what it received. Most servers on the internet do not run
> this; you'll typically point this at your own echo listener (many
> simple ones exist in a few lines of Python/Go/etc.), or a router/appliance
> that offers RFC 862 echo.
