My first news about it .. :D
so many modules and so little time !!

LsOut = os:cmd("ls"), % on unix platform
DirOut = os:cmd("dir"), % on Win32 platform

Well. I still think linking would be a better idea. I'm almost done
linking the boot sender to the new facade. I am to start with the link
driver soon. 

To my delight,you should know Mario is taking a look at Serval. :) :_)
He find in it some useful ideas for his auction web in Erlang (which is
his final project). I have just received a mail from him, telling me how
useful was it for him to copy the actual structure of Serval
configuration code. 

He also gave me his messages Trader file. This is an engine that reads
some configuration parameters from a Erlang file and stores in a table.
He uses for internationalize the web. 

I may try, by now, I am just separating the log messages from the code.
I mean:

I have got a messages file like this:

{environment_protocol_value_not_found,"Could not find the default
protocol value in configuration file"}.
{boot_message_error,"Could not load default configuration"}.
{boot_messages_finalized ,"Finalized the load of the default
configuration of the client"}.
{interfaz_already_reserved,"Could not reserve interfaz because its
already in use"}.
{connection_timeout,"Timeout requesting for connection"}.

and then whenever necessary.

?LOG_WRITE(connection_timeout),

When the new client structure would became more reliable, I will send
you some beautiful pictures of the structure. And maybe, some pretty use
cases.. 

I also have in mind to try the cvs, but I must admit I will have to read
a tutorial to manage myself with command orders. Maybe you can recommend
me a "cvs for dummys" on line manual. Man pages don't seem to be enough
to my absent mind. ;)

Cheers!!
