Gregory's Server@maartje @felsqualle is there a working tls/ssl library for win95? That would be rad to actually fully build that client like icq was (including the cheesy sound effects of that time). I am getting nostalgic π

@felsqualle @dunkelstern i do plan to make it more complete and once I have some ugly patched etc cleaned out I will put it on a diskette and put that in my laptop to upload it to GitHub @maartje @felsqualle fascinating! I learned programming with gfabasic and vb3 (first thing to do: turn off syntax check or get bombarded with popup windows) then switched to vb6 and then to linux and went with C and C++ (which isnβt so nostalgic). I would love to see a vb program again π so please upload it if you feel comfortable with the state of things π would even help out with stuff if i remember. (If wanted) @felsqualle @dunkelstern there is some code in a reply i posted π |
@felsqualle @dunkelstern yes and noβ¦ there are brave people who ported modern curl and openssl or mtls to dos (with packet drivers) but not win 95 (I believe it can be done with non native dlls)β¦ well as far as I can find. As I didnβt want to load a bunch of external code I use the IE based http handler that windows offered at the time. For TLS I host a WebOne proxy at home which does the encryption handling and converts it to http.
