Luciano – CreateStdIO is a good candidate for a function in some library, as are many others … we've had to draw the line somewhere on what functions got added to arp.library. Generally the functions added are needed somewhere in the CLI commands or were needed internal to some other arp.library function so were brought out as library calls. In this case, the error was probably including CreatePort, rather than not including CreateStdIO … CreatePort had been needed for the commonly used SendPacket() function, but we switched SendPacket() to use the process's MsgPort so CreatePort isn't used internal to arplib any more. I'm glad it's there since I use CreatePort() frequently, but it's better suited to exec.library, probably-
