I'm working on a Java client. I've nailed down the basic functionality of a
text-mode dumb client in about half an hour. Dang, it was easy. Thanks, Todd
and Suz! :-,
My client is fairly modular and extensable. I'm using a callback interface for
the consumer of news items, so that changes to the client engine are minimal.
This would allow many types of GUI interfaces; e.g. an applet using AWT for the
majority of Java-enabled browsers, an application using Swing for the really
cool whiz-bang interface, etc. I intend to have either GUI being capable of
loading a message into an HTML window when the user clicks on it. It should be
Way Cool. :-,
Anyway, I hope to have the source code available Real Soon Now.
Cheers,
