I've been spending too much time on this, but I really wanted to get another set of updates out. So it's 1:30am, and here is the latest set up updates. (And I'm swearing this off for a bit.)
All of this is available at a dramatically expanded set of web pages at:
As always, send comments and bug requests to me and I appreciate any testing that you do. Hopefully you find some of this stuff useful.

- IRCjr has better backscroll buffer handling, much faster screen writes and a new method of configuring the TCP/IP stuff. (That change is related to the new DHCP client discussed below.)
- Netcat is my original application that I used to develop my TCP/IP code. It is useful so I cleaned it up and have made it available for download. If you have never used Netcat (nc) on Linux this is a gem .. kind of like a network version of a copy command.
- Finally, I wrote a DHCP client to make setup easier. It also lets you plug directly into the back of a router or cable modem instead of having to fiddle with static addresses and parameters. I've tested against my Linux server, my cable modem, and DHCP servers at work - I'm interested in seeing how it does on other DHCP servers.
