The server already has the capability to support multiple clients, and clients sync'd to the same program are underway. Wouldn't it make sense to have a PC-based client that's a peer of a hardware client? Wouldn't it be a lot easier to write a PC-based client that interprets VFD codes and throws everything else away? > There are a couple issues, though: > > + What OS will the 'displaying' computer be running (Windows, > Mac, Linux, etc) Perl.
