How to find an available (free) TCP port in Java
/**
* Returns a free port number on localhost.
*
* Heavily inspired from org.eclipse.jdt.launching.SocketUtil (to avoid a dependency to JDT just because of this).
* Slightly improved with close() missing in JDT. And throws exception instead of returning -1.
*
* @return a free port number on localhost
* @throws IllegalStateException if unable to find a free port

#
# First, add these two lines to ~/.bashrc
# export LESSOPEN="| /usr/bin/src-hilite-lesspipe.sh %s"
