Ralph,
Since yesterday, I've followed up on the links you provided and had 'long and
meanigful' discussions with the guys who maintain the Standard. As a result,
I'm a bit more clued up than I was yesterday evening.

Paul at work (he who turns up at the Meetings) asked me if I was aware of a

this, so I said I'd ask on the list.
Any ideas?

Hi Terry,
In fact, IDL is separate from RPC. IDL is simply about the way in
which you write you API apparently. The Standard uses it so everyone
has open access to the API calls, regardless of platform.
Right, it defines how data maps to bits and what functions there are

Hi Terry,
I'm sure he would have tried that. I may have been guitly of
oversimplfying the question; I think he might be trying to talk to
another device over a serial link, just as you would have done with a
VT 100.
I was going to ask if that's what he was doing but thought better of it.
