Subject: Re: disable buffering on sockets

> Probably gets is waiting for a linefeed to return the data.

I know, but when I'm using read instead of gets, read returns
all the strings when I close the socket because buffering is enabled.

I want to disable buffering so that ``read幹 retrieved
immediately the data.

some code...
