Euphoria can open sockets on a specified port, and send and receive bytes on that socket. That means Euphoria is capable of doing anything with sockets that the peer allows. The effort required to accomplish that goal, however, is a balance of what convenience functions already exist and how much you have to write yourself.
Very true. If i wanted to POST a file in the next 30 seconds, i'd use wget and switches:
--post-data=STRING use the POST method; send STRING as the data. --post-file=FILE use the POST method; send contents of FILE.
But if i had some time and wanted to make the process smarter, more versatile, i'd naturally whip up an Euphoria app. Or if i wanted to use PUT, because afaik wget v1.11.4 doesn't support it.
