I'd be in favor of a more drastic change, such as removing inet_addr entirely . Largely because `inet_addr("255.255.255.255") ~ inet_addr("foobar")` as noted by the inet_addr man page. Let's add an `inet_aton :: String -> m String` for some `m`.
Or, as previously noted, go straight to getaddrinfo and friends, which have sensible interfaces *and* support more than IPv4. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
