Hey,
<div>looking at the functionality of [tcpclient] and [tcpserver]
objects, I see there is a way to "send a file" through the TCP
connection. What does this means? could you effectively send
files from the filesystem? if so, where are them expected to be
stored by the other end?</div>
<div>It looks exciting but I didn't manage to send anything but
numbers yet...no real files. Maybe I didn't undestand it?</div>

If the data you're sending is a symbol instead of numbers, the
symbol will be interpreted as a file name, so [client 1 hello.jpg(
will send hello.jpg as raw bytes. The other end will just receive
the raw bytes, so it would need to know what to do with it. I made a
pair of [httpreq] and [httpreceive] objects that will work together
with [tcpserver] and [tcpclient] to simplify http requests and
reception on (usually) port 80. I still need to make a [packhttp]
object that will send stuff with the proper header.<br>
