Over the long haul I've made a couple of programs that use sockets but still I don't understand to very basics of it yet. That is how to properly send and receive the data. So far what I have been doing is thus:
$client = IO::Socket::INET->new('server'); while (<$client>) { chomp; next unless $_; .... But doing it that way I sometimes have weirdness where I receive nothing yet the 'next unless' statement doesn't catch it for some reason. For sending I usually just print to the $client variable like a filehandle. I'm just wondering if this is the right way that I should be doing it. Doing it way I currently am seems to result in a lot of flakeyness. So any help in setting me on the right course would be very appreciated.
