mgpnet — MagicPoint Netserver (provide MagicPoint presentation over the net)

Description

mgpnet is a small http server to be executed on the presenter's notebook computer.  It lets audience read
       MagicPoint presentation foils on her notebook computers, over the net.

       When  a  presenter  performs  a  presentation,  she  should  invoke  mgpnet instead of mgp, with the same
       argument.  mgpnet will become an http server running on tcp port 9999 (by default), and invokes mgp as  a
       child  process.   By  accessing  URL  http://hostname:9999/, audience will be able to read the MagicPoint
       window currently displayed on the presenter's notebook.  The webpage provided by mgpnet  is  designed  in
       "client pull" manner; audience's notebook will reload the page, several times a minute.

       If  no  option  is  specified,  mgpnet  will print the URL to be accessed by the audience to the standard
       output.  This is useful for indicating the URL to be accessed on the presentation, like:

       %filter "mgpnet"
       %endfilter

Synopsis

mgpnet [arguments to mgp]

Todo

       Be network conscious.  Current implementation is too naive about CPU/network usage.  Presenter's notebook
       may be overloaded if there's too many audiences.
