Example portforwarder.py

"""Port forwarder with graceful exit.

Run the example as

  python portforwarder.py :8080 gevent.org:80

Then direct your browser to http://localhost:8080 or do "telnet localhost 8080".

When the portforwarder receives TERM or INT signal (type Ctrl-C),
it closes the listening socket and waits for all existing
connections to finish. The existing connections will remain unaffected.
The program will exit once the last connection has been closed.
