I'll check that out. Very useful. I also think that TCC might be persuaded to
compile such that Lua runs without a console. I didn't explore because at the
time I think it demanded more than I knew. Probably still does but next time I
look at using TCC I'll try that.

Thanks for that. :) Very fun bit of code! (And especially useful to have the
same in two forms (This is ideal, it gives lots of possibilities for exploring.
Only had a look at its output via Firefox for now but I now have something very
good to do with my time tomorrow. One thing I read yesterday was that Windows
can have difficulties with socketry that isn't done in the main thread, but as
far as I know, in wxLua the message loop means event driven conditions allow
many connections to be handled without multithreading. Is it as simple and
efficient as it sounds, or am I missing something I need to know at the outset
before trying things?
One other thing just cropped up.. While I was writing this, I'd left wxLua
running the above code, and some time after I'd closed Firefox a wxLua error
message came up stating that variable 'client' had become a nil value when
indexed on line 15 (client:Read(1)). Any advice on prevention?
