Hi!
Sorry for rising the matter. I suppose that Charles is right.

Yes. I thought my old code was robust enough (it 
cam from QNX and I ported it under DOS/Window 
using Borland years ago and it ran without problem for decades).

So, it seems I have to rewrite it and test it 
step by step. If I read you correctly (I am not a 
developper, just a user developping my own 
operational tools as a powefull enough function 
library) my best bet is to rewrite for it. I 
suppose I will enjoy adding a few things.

From what you say, I should  go for gcc 
compatibility under windows to be sure it 
compiles with TCC and probably everywhere.

Yeap. But I think I will try to offer me a 
refurbished library as a Xmas C gift :-)

btw, would you know a clean and clear uptodate C 
documentation including internetworking tools?

Thx to every one
