Since then FPC matured, and there are several socket suites to chose from, avoiding repetitive and error-prone reimplementation of the RFCs. FPC even packages an own one as lnet. Since you are mostly interested in Linux, Synapse might also be worth looking at. Note that in general FPC 2.0.0 tutorials should work. However probably the tutorials are 1.0.x minorly updated to 2.0. 1.0.x legacy has indeed been cleared out since. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
