Re: [MacPerl] Unix socket incompatibility?

Hey, did you have to modify the code much for the port?
Other than the usual path delimeter stuff?  A pointer to the
portedcode or a summary of what you had to do whould be
hehelpful; i'll have to just re-write the same thing again.
It would be lovely to have some code available or a
nice list of needed changes...  I'll be glad to help you
try to debug if you post.


just my 2 yen,
