my concern is if i want to write a CLI UI in addition to the GUI, then the CLI cant maintain an open TCP connection. i may just have the agent run at login and just not do anything. this simplifies things a lot cause then i just have to make a plist file. On Aug 29, 2008, at 11:35 AM, Quinn wrote:

thank you for the thorough response. i'll investigate more about the python thing. since it is an existing codebase, i'll have to look into the last two options.
My experience is that Python makes it pretty easy to access C APIs. You can write a full blown Python module to do the job, or just bodgy something together using the "ctypes" module.
