Hmm... but that brings along one problem... (or so I think)

Implementing TCP support has its caveats... and the biggest one being
that if the support isn't secure, hackers/crackers/lamers can exploit
whatever programs, or language, for that matter, that uses the
implementations. Bad, bad thing.

And I can already see that the above paragragh is malformed, but to
figure it out, gotta think like me...

All in all, I generally disagree with TCP/port/socks/anything support
_into_ Euphoria. Outside of it offers more control, I would suppose,
especially with those whom release their source code. (See what happend
to Linux? Thats probably my best example)
