Hi Larry,

2) but you still have use CARBON Client target, yes?

    all this strange because GUSI Carbon for OS 9 and OS X
    have THE SAME codebase as I know. Because this is CARBON.

    I could understand if you'd use on OS 9 CLASSIC target.
    then this will be other codebase.

3) if you will use Client MACHO, then I think you will see even more faster
work!!! Because CARBON still use GUSI, even on OS X.

Macho client uses true POSIX sockets. They are faster!

So if you have some clients with OS X, you can distribute for them true
MACHO app. This is then more easy now, that PowerPlant support Macho target
also.

4) One more thing we have realize today.
GUSI during its work return UNIX like errors.
So error 9 most probably was returned by GUSI.
And inside of GUSI you can find file errno.h with error codes.

Very good. But why OS 9 glitches...
