[HECnet] Sample DCL code for simple client-server task-to-task comms

[sampsa at mac.com]

The problem with PHONE is that you can't see a centralised directory of the whole network and who's on.

I tried to write a script on a Linux-DECNET box to get such a directory but it broke something on BQT's systems.

IM's are slightly different, as I'm sure you're aware. 

The benefits to phone are:
	
	- You are notified when your buddies log on, anywhere on HECnet
	- You can control who can message you (i.e. buddies only)

Any interest in this type of service, i.e. something like Jabber/Gtalk but over DECNET?

Aren't you reinventing PHONE? ;)

Only insofar as to use it on an actual phone I hope. ;)
