Re: [Nel] NeL Network Engine

i'm aggry with you
at this time i'll use select for windows and linux (or poll for linux)
and design my server so that i can implement another better solution.

has i said before better solution under windows are
- are windows message and event and i don't want use it
- overlapped I/O but i don't really understand how it works
  so it's not easy to design a server which is able to use select and this
  technic. perhaps you already know it but you can take a look at
http://www.cyberport.com/~tangent/programming/winsock/articles/io-strategies.html
