TIPPort WINSOCK component V1.1 ShareWare
----------------------------------------

This Component is for all those people wishing to make DELPHI based
network programs. Two levels of interface are provided, one for simple
access when the componenent is a single connection or listening port,
the other for advanced projects where multi-connections are required or
for the programmer who wishes to do more complex interactions with the
sockets sub-system. All sockets use Asyncronous notifications, via events,
to allow the programmer to make non-blocking programs. This component is
dynamically linked to WINSOCK.DLL and therefore does not hold this DLL
open whilst designing projects within DELPHI.

Requires a 16-bit WINSOCK.DLL which is provided by 3rd Parties
eg (Trumpet 2.0b) or Microsoft. This has been tested with Trumpet 2.0b.

A Sample program of Finger with GetNetTime are included to to demonstrate
the use of this component.


To install these components, we suggest that you create a new
sub-directory of your main delphi directory (e.g. c:\DELPHI\cmpnts
where c is the drive where you installed Delphi), and extract all
the files in the ZIP file into it.  After that add this directory
to your LIB search list (Options/Environment - Library) and then
add the component IPPORT.DCU and rebuild your Delphi library 
(remember to back up your old one as a precaution - better safe than sorry).
Do not add LICINFO.DCU which is used by this components to carry out 
licensing checks.
