From: BH - Brad Coish Date: 2004-05-19T23:02:30+09:00 Subject: Re: [Help] Problem with SOCKET API on OpenVMS TS: Thank you for your assistance. It was quite a stupid assumption on my part, that what could be done in 1.6.8 could likely be done in 1.8.1 in the same way. TS & Matz: My apologies to for wasting your time; this should have been caught on my end. :( Using out of date docs is going to be the end of me. :/ Any idea if there will be a new "Programming Ruby.chm" available?
