Re^3: Telnet Client/Server: What am I doing wrong?

will installing Tk break Tkx?

No, they are completely different modules, although Tkx does closely mimic Tk. You can install them side by side, no problem.

I guess I have resolved some of the problems I was having. Thanks for the help. I've spent some long hours staring at (sometimes called 'reading') the Lincoln Stein book... and trying examples. What it boiled down to was: 1). Noob at the contols. 2). The equipment at work functions differently than the sever I was able to cook up for dev. (compounded the confusion). 3). When I use the methods in IO::Socket::INET, I can talk adequately talk to the equipment at work. 4). My local scruffed-together-server is still broken, but I'm over it. 5). The IO::Socket::INET in its basic mode is text and line oriented...which works for this program.	[reply]
