The code is based on the handlers with similar names in the Chat Input and Chat Output behaviors in the Internet|Multiuser section of the Library Palette. David Simmons provided suggestions for the coding of the original handlers.
I don't know, if it helps any in your case, James, but for chats (-> exchanging text between platforms) I usually simply convert to html and send the html instead of text.
instead of sending the string, I have a temporary #textmember, set its text to the string I want to send and send the members html instead. when receivinbg I do the opposite, set the html of the text member to the received html string and grab the textmembers #text property afterwards.
surely not the fastest way, but very simple and robust and for one liners like a chat it does work fast enough.
just a thought
