I happened to be working on a TCP/IP server when this hit my desk
and having Programming Perl open to the correct page, thought I might as
well quote the "select..." line from the client code...
select ((select(Server), $| = 1)[0];
print Server "Howdy\n";
$answer = <Server>;
from p 440 of the 3rd edition. Hope that helps, I've done servers
lots more than clients...

Sure, especially if your client and server are small, post away. Tell
me what you're really trying to create too.
