The euLibnet example chat server continues running until the user
presses escape. This is I assume what you wanted? The chat server
example in euTcp4u "could" have been programmed the same way.
The examples are just that, simple examples. By writing your own
program that uses the library you can pretty much achieve anything
you want.

The chat server example in euTcp4u stops when a "q" or "Q" is sent
from the client.
After a quick look it looks like euLibnet server example does keep
sending messages to disconnect clients. I'm not sure of the best
method of overcoming this right now. Maybe every "n seconds" you
could send a "are you still alive" message. If the client doesn't
respond within a "timeout" period of seconds you assume the connection
has been lost? There probably are better ways but I don't know
without doing some research.
Saying that, I'm sure you could programatically find a resonable
solution for the problem.

If you can't follow the code in the example chat servers in euLibnet
and euTcp4u I don't think you will be able to write the program you
want to.
My suggestion is (if you want to use euLibnet or euTcp4u) is to
play with the example programs. Make small changes to the examples.
Then start by writing you own simple client/server program. Start
with a really simple program that just accepts connections and sends
simple messages.
Once you understand the basic structure of how to use the libraries
you should have no problems writing the program you want.
Also read the doco that comes with both libraries as it describes
in detail what each function does.
