[GNE]Help!

[Varlock <va...@ca...>]

    Hello.

    I just signed up over here from your suggestion on the [AGP] list. I
don't really want to bother getting the new pthreads working with it or
anything like that - it seems to work just fine as it is with the older
version, but I would really love some help understanding how GNE works.
Mainly, these points.
    I understand the concept of a packet, and I really like your packet
structure. I've already made a new packet type and I think I've got that
under control. Unfortunately, I don't really get the rest of it. I've looked
through some of the example programs and I don't know what the difference
between a ConnectionListener and a Server and/or Client are. Why do the
examples define an OurConnectionListener, and what does it do?
    Grr. I'm having trouble coming up with specific examples here for some
reason. If you assume all I really understand are the packets, is there
something I could read which would help me get what I need to do to write a
simple application? I'm mostly getting confused by the example programs. For
example, let's start of with how do I

a.) create a server (ie. the classes required)
b.) create a client

    Thanks. I'm sure I'll have a lot more questions as I get to understand
this stuff. I believe I have a good grasp of the concepts of networking, you
probably don't have to go into a lot of theory. I just need to understand
how your code relates to that theory so I can get on to the good stuff.
Thanks again.
