i've started with the testhttp.pas in the demos/fpc directory from the synapse 
release archive... then i have also pulled the vcs stuff to use... the demos are 
not included in the vcs...

FWIW: the testhttp works fine for the most part as simple as it is... one can 
also easily enable it for https connections with the openssl dlls by adding one 
unit to the uses clause... but synapse is apparently also only supported on 
winwhatever and linux... i'm aiming for the OS/2 target with help but there are 
still some problems and seemingly no support is forthcoming from the synapse 
folks on their list... at least, i've not seen any at all in regards to my and 
another's postings there :? one person did respond to my first post with a 
pointer to getting errorcodes... i thanked them there and will do so again here 
because they participate in both of these areas... so thanks, once again, 
ludo... it helped but we haven't gotten much further yet :?
