that was actually my position.

                                         Not sure, but maybe you're

i don't think that was steve's point at all.

the issue is not how the GUI was constructed. the issue is how the
proposed "remote GUI (mini) host" communicates with the host running
the DSP. the GUI can be written in klingon to run on Plan 9 from Outer
Space for all i care ... if the remote GUI (mini) host for that
platform uses OSC (or some other defined protocol) to communicate with
the host running the DSP, everything is good.
