thanks!
i'd love to collab on that! interdevice communication is a special interest of mine :)
i write all of my programs in plain C - are you happy with that? i also write all of my own libraries (for networking, io processing & validation etc.) - so you wouldn't need to install loads of dependencies.
not sure if you'd want to work on the front end? lightchat works by serving a closed connection HTTP file and then parsing a GET request (because HTML forms are a nightmare!) for a message. i could probably learn how to work with POST, though! :o
anyway, i'll start thinking about how i'll structure things and respond to this thread a little later once i figure things out!
