As I said...

The Python example does pretty much the same thing.

If you leave off the exception handling, it closes the socket, prints a simple error message, and exits with an error code. There's nothing magical in the Ruby example. :-)

So again, the examples being given here DO have a more custom error message. Which was all I was asking for. The point of the examples being good, explicit (as in, you can expect errors here, etc.) networking code suitable for showing to a beginner.

So, thanks for the example. :-)

Ahh, makes me long for the old days

NOT!

Doing IO programming (serial or parallel), bit twiddling the IOCTL calls for every byte, checking the handshake lines, etc.

Man that sucked!

Simple network programming language? - (tjsinclair) - (51) - Sept. 14, 2005, 02:35:33 AM EDT

Python. - (folkert) - Sept. 14, 2005, 07:08:20 AM EDT

What Greg said. - (admin) - (3) - Sept. 14, 2005, 08:11:56 AM EDT

That's exactly what I was thinking - (tjsinclair) - (2) - Sept. 14, 2005, 09:52:32 AM EDT

cautions, cause.. - (cforde) - (1) - Sept. 16, 2005, 01:57:05 AM EDT

Understood - (tjsinclair) - Sept. 16, 2005, 11:39:51 AM EDT

REBOL gets you there the fastest - (ChrisR) - (4) - Sept. 14, 2005, 10:28:29 AM EDT

Agreed. - (admin) - Sept. 14, 2005, 10:39:38 AM EDT

I considered Java briefly - (tjsinclair) - (2) - Sept. 14, 2005, 10:47:59 AM EDT

Definietly not Java or anything with a compiler - (tuberculosis) - (1) - Sept. 14, 2005, 04:20:32 PM EDT

Granted - (tjsinclair) - Sept. 14, 2005, 04:32:41 PM EDT

perl, creating sockets and listening is fairly easy -NT - (boxley) - (35) - Sept. 14, 2005, 01:12:53 PM EDT

Thanks for the tip - (tjsinclair) - Sept. 14, 2005, 04:34:02 PM EDT

But not as readable as Python. - (admin) - (33) - Sept. 15, 2005, 01:49:10 PM EDT

This isn't readable? - (broomberg) - (32) - Sept. 15, 2005, 05:32:30 PM EDT

Ben could reduce that to about 12 characters... ;-) -NT - (Another Scott) - (15) - Sept. 15, 2005, 05:37:04 PM EDT

Of course he could - (broomberg) - (14) - Sept. 15, 2005, 05:39:02 PM EDT

:-) Yup, but in Python one can't do that. - (Another Scott) - (11) - Sept. 15, 2005, 05:45:23 PM EDT

Hmm - (broomberg) - (10) - Sept. 15, 2005, 05:50:29 PM EDT

Write That Code! - (Another Scott) - Sept. 15, 2005, 06:00:41 PM EDT

Sorry I'm late to the Party ... Ruby Version - (JimWeirich) - (8) - Sept. 19, 2005, 06:10:12 PM EDT

Where's the error handling? - (admin) - (7) - Sept. 19, 2005, 06:19:26 PM EDT

I wouldn't bet that it is missing - (ben_tilly) - (6) - Sept. 19, 2005, 06:39:45 PM EDT

OK, fine... but - (admin) - (5) - Sept. 19, 2005, 07:11:36 PM EDT

As I said... - (ben_tilly) - (4) - Sept. 19, 2005, 07:25:13 PM EDT

Near enough to Python, then. - (admin) - (3) - Sept. 19, 2005, 07:29:04 PM EDT

As I said, "not AS readable as the Python" - (admin) - (15) - Sept. 15, 2005, 06:14:58 PM EDT

Not bad - (broomberg) - (4) - Sept. 15, 2005, 06:24:35 PM EDT

What. He. Said. - (jb4) - (3) - Sept. 16, 2005, 06:15:51 PM EDT

WTF do YOU think it has on it...? - (admin) - Sept. 16, 2005, 06:27:38 PM EDT

I don't think you'll be surprised. (img) - (Another Scott) - Sept. 16, 2005, 06:29:52 PM EDT

Hiss - (ChrisR) - Sept. 16, 2005, 06:47:12 PM EDT

Wel, it's beautiful code - (Arkadiy) - (9) - Sept. 19, 2005, 07:02:40 AM EDT

Use the socket libraries then. - (admin) - Sept. 19, 2005, 07:38:22 AM EDT

It's introduction to networking - (tjsinclair) - (7) - Sept. 19, 2005, 10:33:04 AM EDT

I'd go with socket basics. - (jake123) - (6) - Sept. 19, 2005, 10:52:57 AM EDT

Re: I'd go with socket basics. - (admin) - (5) - Sept. 19, 2005, 11:23:15 AM EDT

Didn't say it would take very long - (jake123) - (3) - Sept. 19, 2005, 12:50:17 PM EDT

Programming Languages will influence the model - (ChrisR) - (2) - Sept. 19, 2005, 01:02:31 PM EDT

Indeed - (jake123) - (1) - Sept. 19, 2005, 01:29:34 PM EDT

Definitely want high level languages - (tjsinclair) - Sept. 19, 2005, 03:03:14 PM EDT

Yep. -NT - (Arkadiy) - Sept. 19, 2005, 08:22:01 PM EDT

I'd suggest Ruby... - (ben_tilly) - (2) - Sept. 15, 2005, 07:05:48 PM EDT

I believe I stole that example from it - (broomberg) - Sept. 15, 2005, 07:08:36 PM EDT

I'm thinking of quick and dirty HOWTO here - (tjsinclair) - Sept. 16, 2005, 01:18:42 AM EDT

Consider Object REXX - (jake123) - (1) - Sept. 16, 2005, 01:06:31 PM EDT

Thanks for the reminder - (tjsinclair) - Sept. 16, 2005, 05:16:33 PM EDT

Please... I can't take this kind of stimulation! I got Disney tunes running all through my head at just the thought of it.
