+// This is the initial implementation that is supported by some versions of the

+// doesn't allow the sim to use any asynchronous API.
+//
+// SimConsoleAsync capability:
+// This capability replaces the original SimConsole capability. It is similar
+// in that the command is POSTed to the SimConsoleAsync cap, but the response
+// comes in through the event poll, which gives the simulator more flexibility
+// and allows it to perform complex operations without blocking any frames.
