in reply to Sockets / IRC

You could use a select loop, which is how POE work under the covers (also, see POE::Component::IRC and POE::Component::Client::UserAgent).

    could you help me with an example of the select one? I wanted to not use the whole POE package with this small project

      If you really want to do it yourself, I'd recommend using IO::Select, which even has a example in the documentation. Keep in mind that you'll need to implement the relevant RFCS.

      The easy way out is to use POE or AnyEvent::IRC::Client.
