World: r3wp

ok, that's the important thing

but it'll be buffered anyway

so if the event machinery already is in full swing :)

ah, graham .... :)

hold me back

HOLD

good

down boy down

wow, there is a tail? actor

where are the available actors documented?

someone had a link the other day which mentioned that the series 
protocol should be available completely

can't remember the link, though :)

makes sense

Do you actually use ftp much ?

nope

never :)

me hardly much either!

last time i used it was years ago

so why do we do ftp, then :) ?

should rather do something more useful, like ... dunno

dns, whois

why are we doing it ?  as an exercise I guess

dns is done

pop3, imap4, smtp

dns is very rudimentary on linux

Imap4 ... Gabriele has something .. but I'm not sure if he can release 
it or not .

for pop3/imap4 the scheme alone is not enough anyway

at least to be useful for something besides the most basic throwaway 
scripts

but well, maybe for something like gabriele's spam stuff

well, I still occasionally use ftp across my network ...

(was it gabriele's?)

i'd rather need ssh

for scripting backups?

between machines ssh (i.e. scp/sftp) and http are my main mechanisms 
of file transfer

so anything that once was ftp is now either http or ssh :)

Hylafax :)

hehe

I should start work on a hylafax scheme

oops .. need to do a STOR

again, STOR should stream a file from local storage ... and write 
a binary type

file! => stream
binary! => just write

mhm

oh yeah.. we need that  other scheme ... rpc://

hehe

i could port some xmlrpc stuff over

I'm still using xmlrpc

so do i, for some things :)

a minimal ftp login skeleton, no error handling: http://bolka.at/share/prot-ftpget.r
[temporary url]

written for readability

i think that'll be a rather typical skeleton for request/response 
protocols
