>I, for one, would like to know more about this API. Is it a perl or C >based API? You open a TCP connection and send commands either in plain ASCII (CRLF, etc) or binary format. We provide a sample utility that you can call from perl or any scripting language as a normal shell command, and you can imbed the source code in your application (removing the main() routine) if you are developing in C. Or of course you can open the connection yourself and so forth. Eric
