is it really inefficient and slow to recv stuff from a socket 1 byte at a time? my program reads data from a socket 1 byte at a time, checking if the character read is a newline, if it isn't then the char is copied into a char array, otherwise the recv stops and something is done with the array. then the whole thing is repeated for the next line... etc. basically i want to be able to read strings of varying length from a socket, stopping when a newline is found. -- +++ If at first you don't succeed, you must be a programmer +++ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~kermit
