Is there an easy way to do internet accses in fb? Also, how can I force freebasic to make it windows oriented instead of running under dos, like this.

fbc foo.bas

but, if I wanted it to run under windows I would do something like this

fbc /w foo.bas


is that possible? please explain. Ohh, yeah, and the internet question, too! :bounce: :rotfl:

somone gots to do a header translation of winsock.h header.

For the windows part just look at some of the App demo's
like Winhello.bas


also on a little side note really doens't matter but nothing fb produces is with in dos. all the dos looking stuff is just consol mode
but it's still all under windows

compile with: -s gui

I'm working on porting winsock.h, but it's slow going since I don't have much spare time. Anyone else got the time to do it if I can't finish it quickly enough?

i was thinking of giving it a crack. but we should try pilfering the power basic community first for one of there .bi files
