uhm...ok...ive pulled it off somehow..
dont yet have any GUI for the server
(yes i know the server is not supposed to
have a GUI but uhm im making this a one-on-one
chat like only client and server , zentara
did tough post some very good code on how
its actually supposed to be done and i have looked
upon that).
for all newbies like me,please DO NOT take this
code into consideration,its just an experiment
gone terribly wrong,but...working.
ok uhm...here's version 0.1
http://perlhobby.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/scripturi_perl_teste/chat0.1/
i have tested it in ubuntu,it seems to work ok,as long
as server starts first.
it doesnt work on windows.
client has GUI and you can do stuff with that but server
has only console and you can use that to send receive
messages.
i posted so that i get impressions/suggestions from you
monks as i am pretty...unexperienced atm.
i intend with all suggestions gathered to re-write the app several times until i get it perfectly right :)
thanks for any suggestions you might have
