Until now, we've had diferent *versions* of telgate.js for different types of
hosts which required different combinations of TG_*
flags (e.g. mudgate.js, unixgate.js). However, with the flexibility of
command-line arguments, we don't really need those. If you
want to pass multiple flags to telgate.js (the latest version in CVS), you
specify them separate with a pipe-symbol, but no spaces:
"?telgate[.js] host[:port] [flag][|flag][|flag]..."

example:

"?telgate.js rainmaker.wunderground.com TG_PASSTHRU|TG_ECHO"
