Matthew1344 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I'm trying to figure out how to script a (relatively) simple messaging client with these criteria:Send text messages between users on the network (peer-to-peer)Both users (sender and recipient) will be running the clientSend via the user's IP addressI'd like to send it as XML via HTTP, but I'm flexible on this.Does *NOT* use NET SENDObviously, the client will have to both send outgoing messages and listen for incoming messages.I've looked around and haven't found any mention of anything like this, but please redirect me if I'm attempting to reinvent the wheel.Thanks in advance!

jvanegmond Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Man.. Just pick one: Search for 'Chat' github.com/jvanegmond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew1344 Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 Hmmm... when I hear "chat", I think "irc" and assume there's a server involved somewhere. Is my assumption wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is my assumption wrong?Yes, your assumption is wrong. 'Chat' indicates conversation between people, it does not indicate that a server is involved. github.com/jvanegmond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
