I just finished converting the hobbit's netcat to ansi C!

Yay! I just spent the last two hours converting the hobbit's netcat from ancient horrible ugly poop to horrible ugly ANSI-COMPLIANT C!!!
It is really, truely, ugly, and it will take me days to make it legible. Ah well. Just thought I would announce it.
I don't suppose you'd be interested in making what you currently have available so that the rest of us can take a stab at it? :)

sure, didn't know anyone would be interested. You can download it here:

Have fun, let me know what you do with it - I would be quite interested.

How is WinSock(2) ANSI?
By having its declarations #included and called in an ANSI-compliant manner, perhaps?
Well networking was the aspect i was thinking of not being ANSI compatible. Considering its really an OS specfic thing.
*nix do the BSD socket thing. While windows clones some of it (think windows select) and has its own WS* routines for data as well as familar system calls like recv asnd write.

I was simply talking about it being compile-able with a modern compiler. Not referring to winsock or anything like that.
I'm trying to work up the courage to go through and fix things. Wish me luck!
(Yuck: it even has goto statements!)

nasty C. I mean, really, it just didn't look like anything I'd ever seen. Slowly working through it, renaming things so they make sense and stuff.
