A rudimentary TCP/IP sockets library for Virtual Pascal that is basically a translation of the C header files from the old 16-bit TCP/IP stack SDK into VP Units and Includes. It should be noted that there may be more modern and better socket libraries than this and vpTCP may not work optimally with 32-bit stacks.

It ships with Telnet and Finger example source but no source code for the library.

Versions

1.03 (1996)
1.10 (1996-06-11)

vpTCP version 2 was announced but appears not to have been delivered.
Prerequisites

Virtual Pascal v1.0 or later

Licence

Freeware
