I have a question regarding Objectworks/Smalltalk release 4 for the Mac.
I am working on a client program which will connect over a network to a
server process running on a Sun (or any UNIX machine).  I can see how to do
this on the UNIX Smalltalk version (it comes with methods supporting sockets),
but not for the Mac.  Are there any methods or UDP's out there that have 
already been written to allow socket-type connections via MacTCP?  If so,
where? If not do you have any suggestions on how to go about doing this? I 
am also thinking about using RPC calls but Smalltalk doesn't seen to support
those either. I'm new to Smalltalk so if anything I've asked is obvious blame
the manual that came with release 4.
