I'm sorry, I doesn't know that. You can find a viewer under

This presentation is a journey of the linux tcp and unix domain socket implementation and show very nice how the
implementation works. An english translation is appended :-)
Perhaps we can use it to create soemthing similar for cygwin. I think there are only changes nesessary in the
functions names and functions levels, but the basics are the same.

Please be patiented with the presentation, I think the first pages will bore you, so skip to chapter 3, there are
the interesting thinks. I think this could be a good starting point for discussion. Especially for guys, who are
not very familiar with unix sockets (like I was)

Okay, sorry.

I have no problem with line breakage. I have set line breakage to 115 characters, how do I set this ?

Currently I'm forced to use Outlook and this is very limited in the way of doing this.
Perhaps anyone else have an idea how to deal this with outlook.
I hope I can use KMail sometime in the future :-)

Perhaps it would be good to give some hints, in the faq I haven't nothin about this topic ?
