I would also look at using JSON for anything other than simple examples. I use this technique extensively for custom peer-to-peer apps. I have even develope a small xinetd service to accept incoming connections. This has then enabled me to use Net::telnet in client scripts to generate interactive services. JSON is a good, consistent method of transferring data. It also helps when combining PERL and PHP apps -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
