! modified hb_inetRecv[All]() to always return number
of bytes read if at least one byte was successfully read
just like in documentation so it's not longer necessary to
use hb_inetCount() to check real number of read bytes.
On error they return -1 and 0 when foreign host closed connection.
! modified hb_inetSend[All]() to always return number of written
bytes if at least one byte was successfully written so it's not
longer necessary to use hb_inetCount() to check real number of
written bytes. On error they return -1.
! modified hb_inetRecvLine() to return "" on errors and always
set numeric value with error code or number of bytes read
in 2-nd parameter passed by reference
! modified hb_inetDataReady() to return -1 instead of .F. to
indicate errors when socket is not open socket
! modified hb_inetRecvLine() and hb_inetRecvEndBlock() to work
like in documentation and set in 2-nd parameter passed by
reference the size of read line with line terminator, -1
or error and 0 when foreign host closed connection.
! modified hb_inetRecvEndBlock() to always use default EOL when
there is no not empty string in passed string parameter or
passed array with line terminators
! fixed some small differences between hb_inetRecvLine() and
hb_inetRecvEndBlock()
! fixed returned values in hb_InetDGramSend() and hb_InetDGramRecv()
to be synced with documentation
* minor: modified hb_inetRecvEndBlock() to use as default EOL
s_inetCRLF instead of hardcoded "\r\n"
* eliminated some redundant code
+ added automatic socket initialization in windows builds
% added support for read ahead buffer in hb_inetRecvLine() and
hb_inetRecvEndBlock() and updated other functions which may
interact with it. It greatly improved the speed of code
which extensively uses above functions.
Warning!!! Above modifications may force updating other code which used
some undocumented hb_inet*() functions behavior i.e. some side
effects in previous implementation. Please update your code
if necessary.
* harbour/doc/inet.txt
! modified hb_inetAccept() documentation wrongly describing value
returned on error when it's NIL

! fixes for real OS2 command processor - please test
