Robyne, Brien,

Your exchange about TNetListen and socket descriptors caught my eye, but I
don't really understand the problem or the solution, I'm afraid!

Pure curiosity: presumably you want to get the socket descriptor *before or
without* a call to TNetAccept - why ?

Agreed!

What is it about the nature of sockets and the way descriptors are allocated
that enables you to guarantee that this will be the case ? If this is the case
normally, would it also work when setjmp() and longjmp() are used, as they are
in ISODE ?

Thanks in anticipation,
