Hi John,
AS others have posted, there is nothing built in to the Rev engine to
accomplish this.
However libIPC, authored by Jan Schenkel for the revolution_ipc
group, <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/revolution_ipc>, processes
generic "IPC_Events" just as yoy describe.
All SDB client/server messages are formatted and processed as IPC_Events.
Hopefully, a future version of libIPC will support AppleEvent
communication protocol in addition to TCP/IP.
