Using the source code from the new-chat-c and new-chat-s files (client/server chat application) and the threading example from the thread-ps_r file (threaded portscan application)

You need to make the client/server chat application non-blocking for the client outputs, by using threading.

I.e., the client should display incoming messages when they are received. Currently, the client is required to press the enter key before a received message will be displayed. Neither the client or server are threaded, which would also cause problems if many clients are connected.

There are many ways to do this, for example you could use two threads to control two ports, one for sending and one for receiving.

Again, how you accomplish the task is your choice.
