4The latest version of this library is available from:
5http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_net/
6
7This is an example portable network library for use with SDL.
8It is available under the GNU Library General Public License.
9The API can be found in the file SDL_net.h
10This library supports UNIX, Windows, and BeOS.  MacOS support is being written.

12The demo program is a chat client and server.
13The chat client requires the sample GUI library available at:
14http://www.libsdl.org/projects/GUIlib/
15The chat client connects to the server via TCP, registering itself.
16The server sends back a list of connected clients, and keeps the
17client updated with the status of other clients.
18Every line of text from a client is sent via UDP to every other client.

20Note that this isn't necessarily how you would want to write a chat
21program, but it demonstrates how to use the basic features of the
22network library.

24Enjoy!
