NAME
    App::aep - Advanced Entry Point (for docker and other containers)

SYNOPSIS
        From within your dockerfile, simply use cpan or cpanm to add App::aep

        It should then be possible to use 'aep' as the entrypoint in the dockerfile

        Please see the EXAMPLES section for a small dockerfile to create a working 
        example

DESCRIPTION
    This app is a dynamic entry point for use in container systems such as
    docker, unlike most perl modules, this has been created to correctly
    react to signals so it will respond correctly.

    Signals passed to this entrypoint will also be passed down to the child.

    Act like a lock server, this means we will expect other aeps to connect
