I am having three problems with DJGPP, it'd be great if I could find
some answers here, as all of my other attempts have failed.  Thanks.

First Problem:

The only TCP/IP library I can find has no documentation for it.  I can
figure out most of it by looking at the header file, but one of the
parameters for opening a TCP socket requires a pointer to a function
DATAHANDLER that takes no arguments.  I am trying to figure out what the
heck to do with that parameter.  


Second Problem:

The only CommPort library I could find (Svasync) doesn't let you set the
IRQ for the comm port that you use.  I need to use COM3, but it is on a
non-standard IRQ of 9.  The library will only work if I set the IRQ of
the port to 4.  In the source code, it has 4 settings for each port:
Port, VectorNum, EnableIRQ, and DisableIRQ.  So how do I set these to
access my port on COM3?

Third Problem:

This may seem pretty lame, but I cannot figure out how to flush the
stdout.  When I call fflush(stdout), I know there is stuff in the
buffer, but it doesn't display on the screen.  What am I to do?


Thanks for any help anyone offer.
