This is a small python application that runs a web server for locally exploring
a blockchain using RPC connectivity.
+# configuration
+
+$HOME/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf needs to define rpcuser and rpcpassword.
+
+Optionally, rpcconnect (rpc listening address) and rpcport may be defined.
+
+Notably, the documented recommended command line for alphad configures it to
+listen on a nondefault port.
