Very nice. I want to do a real simple 2-way chat program as my first real
application on the W5100. This will be all assembly of course, but maybe
PLASMA would make it even simpler? It will just work like the old-school
Unix talk or write commands.

Perhaps ;-) One of the concepts behind last weeks fiber library was to make writing such applications conceptually easier. Dedicate a fiber to servicing the incoming packets and it looks like a typical networked program.
