Encouraged by that, I just setup up a simple client server mechanism in
Livecode. The server is a standalone and the client is a stack I run in the
IDE.  It was very easy to send messages both directions.

However, I notice that both the server and the IDE use a very high
percentage of CPU time when they are running, even when there are no
messages going back and forth.  Both of them use read from socket with a
callback message. Is that normal?
