In fact the puppeteer is just a listening socket and bison based interpreter
which understands some simple language. So it should not be thought of
as command line. 

The language interpreter is pretty independant of all the rest
so the protocol can be implemented with some other architecture.

The other intended use of the puppeteer is an attempt to let disabled people to 
play freeciv.
