Listen on a specific port.

By default cursordisco will use --port 80.

--port 0 will choose an available port at random.

Errors

Error: listen EADDRINUSE

The port is already in use. You must choose another port or kill the process which is listening to that port.

Error: listen EACCES

You do not have permission to listen to this port. Most likely you are trying to listen to port 80 and do not have the necessary privileges. You can:

1. Use sudo (i.e. $ sudo cursordisco --port 80)
2. Use a reverse proxy or some other form of port forwarding
