As to your question on making stacks talk together, I have looked in to this
quite a bit. If you are using Macs, the best way to do it is the send
command. However, if you are using PC's, the only way I have found to do
this is via sockets. Here is the script I have developed to do this.
If the stack script of both computers, you put the following.
on opencard
accept datagram connections on port 90 with message gotone
end opencard
on gotone thesocket, themessage
do themessage
end gotone
on netsend what
open datagram socket to "1.1.1.1:90" --You put the IP address of whatever
computer you want to send it to here.
write what to socket "1.1.1.1:90"
end netsend
When you want to send a message, you would send a command somewhat like
this:
netsend ("beep 1")
I also have a slightly modified version of this script I use for multiple
computers, if you want it.
