Well, your answer doesn't help me make things easier for you. I want a code sample of how you are using CLI so I can think about how to make that level of simplicity available in the proper way. CLI is meant for one thing: RequestClient and InsertClient. If you really insist on this you should subclass CLI and override the part where it calls exit(). -- # tavin cole # # "The process of scientific discovery is, in effect, # a continual flight from wonder." # - Albert Einstein _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl at freenetproject.org http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devl >From devl-admin at freenetproject.org Fri Apr 13 23:32:24 2001 Return-Path: <devl-admin at freenetproject.org> Received: from hawk.freenetproject.org (postfix@[4.18.42.11]) by funky.danky.com (8.9.3/8.8.7) with ESMTP id XAA19016 for <danello at danky.com>; Fri, 13 Apr 2001 23:32:20 -0400 Received: from hawk.freenetproject.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by hawk.freenetproject.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 85007580B4; Fri, 13 Apr 2001 20:14:05 -0700 (PDT) Delivered-To: devl at freenetproject.org Received: from server5.generalmail.com (server5.fpw.ch [194.209.117.20])
