Subject: Re: [ql-users] Lynx 282
Me too, but I don't think that's going to be in the first release. At least not documented. Or at least not from sbasic.I forgot it wasn't public knowledge yet. QPC2 v3.30 will have access
to Windows TCP/IP much like how uQLx allows access to TCP/IP of the
underlying Linux.
It's not a general TCP/IP system like soql because it uses Windows. So
don't expect it to be ported to other QDOS/SMSQ E systems.
The QPC2 is with Beta testers now and should be on general release
soon when Marcel is happy with it - he's gone through 3 or 4 test
versions - you know he won't release it until he's happy, fair play!
I do hope someone will have the courage to write an article on setting
up and using Lynx, the email apps from JRH and the FTP application
otherwise we might find ourselves with only enough users to count on
the fingers of one hand if my experience is anything to go by. Nothing
wrong with Marcel's work, it's pretty transparent, it's the unix-ness
of the application software which will flumox most users I guess.
Marcel's work is pretty useless without software people can actually
use!
So what we need is some clear explanation of how to access the TCP/IP stuff
from Sbasic or assembler.
How do you open a socket and/or a port and make bytes go through it.
Imagine an sbasic mail client.
