	Hmmm.. Implementing this cross-applicaiton communication was 
suggested a few weeks ago via a socket mechanism (at least the idea of
a remote control for gschem).  How did you implement this remote-access
through the X server?  I'm curious (I suppose I could/should look at the
code, but I have week's worth of e-mail to answer :-)  Thanks
