My Apple devices will only post UTF-8 - so I've       restored my xlats and back to UTF-8 reading and posting.              Thus my box is good again:       ╔═══╗       ║ ║       ╚═══╝              > more success storys like this, is it done with a ebuild ?, siill my       > own planned work to get jamnntpd as ebuild here, so ss life       >       > if it exists then i like to add it to fidonet layman overlay, so all       > can complain to me its not working =))              Well, I started off just adding in TLS, however; after working with the code       for a week, I realized just how much I could improve the flow. So I went nuts       and started getting rid polling loops, which I hate and unreliable with a TLS       session. Building a polling loop with select() is bad practice, select is       supposed to allow a thread to sleep while waiting for something to do,       although it has been used by many a program to is it something is ready to       do. Years of working with high performance computing has taught me that you       only need CPU time when there is something to do, otherwise you just waste       cycles. So, I continue to work on the code, looking for improvements in flow.              As for an ebuild, that would need someplace to host the source and someone       crazy enough to make one. :)              ---        * Origin: -=[ Space Station Alpha ]=- (1:266/420.0)    |
