Posted : Windows Sockets API file wsa.f for 32bit Windows PC

[Howerd]

Hi All,

I've just posted my Windows Sockets API file wsa.f for 32bit Windows
PC.
It includes a simple POP3 client and HTTP client interface code.
I've tested it on VFX Forth, Win32Forth and SwiftForth.

If any one has an HTML parser, please let me know - together with the
HTTP client this could make a very simple Web Browser.

Enjoy!

Interesting! May I know which Win32for version you test the code on?

Thanks!

Hi Pai,

The version I am using is :

Win32Forth: a Forth for Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2K/XP
Version: 6.12.00 Build: 2

From :
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=55294&package_id=51497&release_id=523074

Earlier versions of Win32Forth will not work with this code without
adding rel>abs and abs>rel to the Windows calls - this would make
import: very difficult to implement for these versions.

BTW I've just updated the Win32Forth version of import: to work
interpretively, available from the same place :
