Have you sorted that out to your satisfaction? I made a Lazarus GUI program to convert a serial stream to TCP to a remote server where it was again converted to serial. The question was raised because I have used APM inside the main loop of the application in order for it to process stuff like mouse clicks etc while running the main task. Then I figured that I should make a console program with the same functions, but APM is part of the Forms unit and this is not used by a console. So I was thinking that maybe the data handling wouyld not work if it was missing... Now I decided to keep the GUI app and use it interactively when I need to run against the remote system. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
