HttpWebRequest class

[Joe Snodgrass]

If I want to write C# software to give commands to other people's
websites, and then process the replies, is HttpWebRequest the class I
would use for that task? TIA.

Why don't you ask on a C# group?

..NET (Http)WebRequest is approx. equivalent to Java (Http)URLConnection.

Which everyone could have told you if you have asked in a .NET group -
in a Java group it is purely coincidence if someone also knows
..NET!

Yes, that's one good way to do it. But as Ian suggests, you should ask
the question in the C# or .NET newsgroup
(microsoft.public.languages.csharp

Is that still around? My Usenet provider doesn’t think so (on the server
msnews.microsoft.com, anyway).

(microsoft.public.languages.csharp
microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.csharp

or
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework). Neither the Java nor C++ newsgroup
seem like relevant forums for the question.

Sure are.

Just find another NNTP server.
