Mastering TS Net

[Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami]

@Charles: Thanks, I look into lessons.

But, using the dictionary example
Why do we get the 

> # variable watcher
    > 
    > tResult      --        tsneterr: ID already in use

Even *before* the trace the script? I have break 

On mouseup

But it gives this error even before starting the trace?

@ Jacqueline: why use TSNet:
1) because the "libURLLastRHHeaders()" are only available to desktop. And I want to see them on mobile
2) because we are working with the "cloud" and async download means I can pass array to TSNet to open connection to download several files at once; like "load" but with more control... ( I think. I have yet to study it out) and get the headers.

    Hi BR,
    
    There are a series of lessons on tsNet on the LiveCode website:
    
    http://lessons.livecode.com/m/4071/c/235433
    
    If you are looking for an example of how to download something direct to a file, the lesson called “How to asynchronously download via SFTP directly a file” should help.
    
    The same concepts apply for downloading to a file regardless of the protocol being used.
    
    If you can’t quite find an example lesson that answers what you need, let me know and I will get one organised.
    
    Regards,
    
    Charles
