You are a godsend! I was just asking about this feature on the list... 1) Should be reasonably fast 2) Should use secure connection (ideally ssh).
I'd rather teach Pharo communicate via standard input/output first so you can use it as a command line tool, then expand this ability to talk via any variant of TCP/IP. I am very new to Pharo so I don't know the extent it's married to its GUI environment, not sure how easy it is to implement...
