NAME

Gimp::Net - Communication module for the gimp-perl server.

SYNOPSIS

  use Gimp::Net;
  
  recommended is:
  
  use Gimp ':consts';
  use Gimp::Net ':procs';

DESCRIPTION

WARNING: the Server may open a listening socket at port 10009, reachable for everybody. In this version, no provisions for security have been made!

This is early alpha.

You first have to install the "Server" extension somewhere where Gimp can find it. Then have a look at example-net.pl (and run it!).

FUNCTIONS

server_quit

sends the perl server a quit command.

BUGS

Does not work with Gimp:OO (yet).

This module is much faster than it ought to be... Silly that I wondered wether I should implement it in perl or C, since perl is soo fast.
