Excellent :)
Yes some potentially cool things there. RemoteDesktop, Print, Notification,
DynamicLauncher are just a few I could think of uses for :)

I see you just added 'h' (fd) file descriptor support.  I think that was
why i could not get other methods to work as getting the apparent "file
descriptor" property seemed to fail. The method instructions said "just use
Close of the file descriptor" but i could never get that working.

I shall have to try again now with this new feature :)
thanks again
