Well if I ever get a chance to sit down and try and figure them  
out... (grrr)...

There are some objects for doing client-server programming in the  
framework.  If they are operational you could build a java program to  
provide and manage messaging between itself and it's currently open  
clients.

Pretty neat stuff.  I kinduv like the idea of having client/server  
objects and not necessarily relying on DO as in NeXTStep.  I think DO  
is overkill for many application concepts or at least we're not ready  
for DO-based systems with the kind of functionalities that most  
people are building now.  With the advent of agents this would  
change.

But then I'm digressing... check out the application framework called  
'net' and look under NetworkServer and NetworkClient.  You could  
always use Socket too but... yecch!

Also... please let me know if you get any results!  My sources will  
go up on the net in the usual place (http://www.cs.sonoma.edu/Java)  
if I get them to work.
