IMHO what you want is |not to "update client code on the fly", but to make the client mostly a |kind of interpreter for what the server sends in.

You may be right and it might not be worth the trouble - but what you mention above is closer to the sort of thing I have in mind - it is essentially using python to create a script language, and moving scripts around - but hey - python is already a script language... so if Pyro is for 'moving the scripts around' - Then that is what I must look at very hard... - thanks - Hendrik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
