Well, avr-libc doesn't aim to be a subset of Posix, but rather wants to be a C standard library. Anyway, I wouldn't mind adding those to the library, albeit creating a subdirectory "arpa" just for the purpose of keeping these two macros/inline functions in <arpa/inet.h> looks a little strange. However, that makes less than one percent of a functional IP stack ;-), and as Eric already explained, the remainder of an IP stack wouldn't belong into avr-libc. At best, it could be more on-topic for the companion project avr-corelib, but I think they are still lacking much more basic things than an IP stack. Btw., SLIP is dead. PPP replaced it very successfully, and nobody sheds a tear anymore for SLIP. -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
