Hi,

as /Command currently doesn't contain /View component, I thought about
creating some server, which would transfer image data to /View for the
display....

Althought I could launch new /View task with --do "view layout [image
%bay.jpg]" command line parameter, /View itself starts for some 4-5 sec
on my P133, and it's not acceptable.

So I thought about running /View and delivering data thru tcp/ip ports.
So here's my question - what's the best kind of port to do so? open,
open/binary, open/binary/direct, open/lines? To date the most used here
is open/lines, but I would like to know also opinion of others ...

The problem also is - if I will want to create some non-blocking server
(e.g. something along the lines of Sterling's reb-proxy.r script), I
will have to send data by chunks and then build the result on the other
side). So let' say /View is making connection to /Command server,
requesting instructions to do and I would like to send something like:
"view layout [image <<<reduced image data here>>" ...

Or is it better to generate the script-file? But then I would have to
save image data and load it into /View from harddrive. I just thought
delivering whole data thru tcp/ip port would be faster, but that's the
question ..

Anyone?

Thanks,
