@Felix: " I'm guessing here Thomas is using the term "leoBridge" interchangeably with "leoserver". - correct me if I'm wrong." Yes, I was unclear in my own mind which one does what, but I knew that leoserver opens leoBridge.
Basically, what I want to do is to work on a Leo outline that lives in computer A, and I want to sometimes work on it on Computer B without having to copy the outline to and from a privileged directory. At first, I pictured the outline open in Computer A, and Leo in Computer B seeing the same thing, like an echo. But then I thought why not have Leo/A be a null gui? Or maybe Leo/A isn't actually needed?
