Hello, there is no restriction using Laccio Framework and tcp/ip or other protocols. Infact, Laccio is a single ".R" file, that you can directly download and import using something like:
>> do read http://myserver/laccio.r
Furthermore, the components could be created using a single ".R" file or more files, that you can download and use in your environment. About message passing, it is not used to exchange information, since Rebol already supports several protocols and method to efficently solve the scope. WHen I talk about "message", I'm talking about events. I named them messages, since a message is a signal that a method can send, and if your procedure is registered to receive such event, it will grab it. And consider that, usually when you use the typical event dispatcher, you can associate only a method to a single event. Example: if you create a button, you can associate only a function to its click; instead, if you use Laccio, you can associate as many "listeners" as you want to a single event (message). I downloaded your first sample and will take a look at it.
