Thank you for your guidance but I seriously have no idea what HANDLEs are , nor how to write code that contains elements differing for the different platforms, nor how to write unit tests. I guess I can read up on it, but it would take a lot of time and I just can't commit to that right now. As I do some more coding on the project and get a clearer understanding of the pipes/sockets/etc. system I might get to adding the method, but at the moment there's too many 404s for me to jump in.
PS:I searched for a synonym/noun to "unclear" but in the end remembered we're programmers and error codes are always an option :D On 5/29/2014 2:02 AM, Thiago Macieira wrote: > Em qui 29 maio 2014, às 01:56:48, Petko Ditchev escreveu: >> I'd love to give back to the project, but I'm not confident I know >> enough on the topic to write the method myself.
