GMFK might run on the Mac someday but Windows is unlikely. I think a more forward-looking approach would be to use port 3131 for data and another port for control/status and get the protocol implemented by PSK Deluxe.
I have exchanged mail about this proposal already with Tomi OH2BNS, Patrick FC6TE for MultiPSK, Joop for gpsk, and Rein PA0R for PSKMail as well (which is currently using a file directory).
