Oh, great...
I know of many workarounds, but hey, give me break. Isn't this great that
we can call a telnet client or do a wrap around client/server (like
telnet, but specialized only for this purpose) for calling one single OS
system call? This should be in REBoL. Just like the
open
"listen" "write" "read", these are basically system calls. We need
execute/spwan
and/or "fork" and have many things that we could stop
complaining about for quite some time. I know Carl wanted to implement it
in different way (to have task! and stuf) but this wouldn't break that
schema, I believe...
Well, whatever...
