If you're interested by XNet, I've been working on a couples of
problems and now I've a non-blocking spcket reading function
implemented in XNet. XNet is 'kind of a ' proof of concept to show
that the core of the applescriptabiilty of an application can be
taken from the application and can so be in a separated framework. If
this version interest you I can either send it to you or upload it.
Do not hesitate to ask me to have answers about how it is working, or
if you think that something could be better.

I would like my Quicktime movie and an applescript background
process to communicate on a simple socket on localhost
The functionality is very similar to making a call to a remote PHP
script and echoing something back :)
Here is the basic functionality:
QT sends out the localhost http request on port 8181: http://
127.0.0.1:8181/?QTcmd2ApplescriptApp=doSomething
1) The Applescript Background App is listening on port 8181...
The socket is initialize and bound to 8181 and is set up to listen,
accept a connection, and return info
2) Applescript hears the requests and does something with the
incoming string:
GET /? QTcmd2ApplescriptApp =doSomething HTTP/1.1
Accept ............
3)Applescript sends back info on the same socket..... like PHP's echo
4) A QT List Received Event is triggered ...QT does something with
the info
I have a similar socket server running on Windows using wsa, NSIS,
and QuickTime
Is this possible with applescript? If so, where would I start
looking for info on OS X, sockets, and applescript?
many thanks :)
