I'm not sure if windows XP support is desired or not, however the function
**inet_ntop** does not exist in the version of **WS2_32.dll** included with XP.

It would appear as though there is an alternate function to use based upon the
code I found here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20023588/c-procedure-entry-point-inet-ntop-ws2-32-dll-on-xp

I'm not smart enough to help implement this stuff, and like I stated earlier,
I'm not sure if y'all intend to support XP, but just thought I'd let y'all know.

Thanks for the awesome language. I hope to see it continue to grow! :)
