or maybe even zeromq ( www.zeromq.org )
(interprocess, in-process and tcp).
i have a wrapper with examples (cross platform) for version 2.x
Why farm out to a 3rd party all that stuff that's in Eu already? What is gained by using zeromq instead of socket.e, memory.e, etc?
Something like zeromq is a much higher level of abstraction than the basic parts of the standard library that you could use to implement similar functionality. And it's already implemented, so you don't have to understand all of the low level details to get up and running.
Also, this library works with multiple languages, which euphoria's standard library obviously does not, so you could have your euphoria program communicate with java, C++, etc.
