 * Create a simulated link. This link is connected to an input and output file.
 * The link sends one line at a time at the specified sendrate. The timing of
 * the sendrate is free of drift, which means it is stable on the long run.
 * However, small deviations are mixed in which vary the sendrate slightly
 * in order to simulate disturbances on a real communication link.
 *
 * @param readFile The file with the messages to read (must be in ASCII format, line breaks can be Unix or Windows style)
 * @param writeFile The received messages are written to that file
 * @param sendrate The rate at which the messages are sent (in intervals of milliseconds)
