[REBOL] Re: Chat / IM
From: ryanc:iesco-dms at: 18-May-2001 12:47
I was thinking of writing one that is HTTP based. This way you could setup an ordinary
webserver to do it, or a rebserver if you prefer. Example:
>> read http://fe.fi.fo/rebol-chat?user=bob&says=Thats+cool
== {ralph: "when is View going to be avail for macs?"
sam: "Soon, I hope."}
Easily done in a night too. Only reason I have'nt written it yet, is I could'nt make
up my mind how I would like to format the returned updates. Now that I
wrote it down, the above looks pretty good. Maybe you can write the client, I can write
the server, and we could be done in an hour or two?
I suppose you could set it up to do IM too, push or pull being up to the client. Example:
read http://fe.fi.fo/rebol-chat?user=bob&push=4444 ; push messages to port 4444
