heartbeat Command

Description

Starts or stops heartbeating on the current connection.  Heartbeats are small responses sent every 60 seconds with the content "HB".  In order to receive these safely at the client side, the client needs to use a raw mode connection and assign a command ID to the "heartbeat start" command.  The return HB responses will all contain that command ID and can be safely ignored.

Command Syntax

heartbeat,hb [start|stop]

Example

The following example turns on heartbeating for the current connection
>hb start
