Morning,

Quick intro type email thing. My names Chris, I've been doing Perl for a while, and I live in Sunderland. (Sounds like an AA meeting..). I work in Newcastle doing all things Microsoft, but please, don't hold that against me.

PS Quick techie question (its obligatory on these sorts of lists).. Is there *any* way to get a non-blocking socket using Win32/ActiveState Perl? fnctl()'s O_NONBLOCK, and F_NDELAY things haven't been implemented, I'm at a loss with ioctl() and I can't find a jot of documentation about setsocketopt() (or whatever its called..). Help? (The obvious answer of 'Don't use Win32' would be good, but I want cross platform. Don't mind having two versions, but it needs to work.)
