If you're okay with TCP, Thomas Mensencal has a good TCP server addon
that I've been using lately to send Python commands to Softimage. Search
for 'TCPServer For Softimage' on rray.de/xsi.

There was a tutorial on how to remote-control XSI via COM by Diego
Garcia in 2006 (from 3dsmax, but technique might be similar from
elsewhere).
His website www.sloft.com is down for maintenance atm, but I think I
found a copy of it here:

The video and original links to the scripts do not work anymore, but
the very bottom link seems to be a local copy that still works.
Sorry for the noob question, but... is calling functions inside SI,
from a
Python instance outside SI possible?
Ive got Python correctly installed in SI, but have no idea if this is
doable, and information on the web looks a bit scarce and confusing.
There is this:

But I have no clue if that is what I want...
Anyway, just wondering, no life or death situation for now...
Cheers
