The work is all server side, so even if it is Unix-only, that just

I guess I was thinking more generally as a portable,
flexible way for users to access the PDL machinery.
E.g., better than a command line interface...  For
that, the code would need to run locally and not just
on a web server.

And I spend probably too much time looking into new software. I think
I hope that if I distract myself long enough, my dissertation will
magically complete itself.

The IO handling appears to require ptys and so

starting point for a more general solution.

Sheesh, is it just me or is it _really_ hard to
keep up with all the existing software we could
build on or utilize?  :-)

Although you would probably need to do some sandboxing or else
somereworking, you might check out
showmetheshell,https://github.com/vti/showmetheshell
Its a lightweight, perl-driven, browser based terminal!

If you change the line

       PocketIO->new(instance =>    Handler->new(cmd =>    '/bin/bash'));

to

       PocketIO->new(instance =>    Handler->new(cmd =>    'pdl'));

The browser terminal starts up with a new pdl prompt and everything.
One really just needs to look into the sandboxing at that point.

Cheers,
