While not sure of the behavior you are trying to achieve, XML-RPC comes
to mind. But it's based on HTTP protocol in which the client puts
request to the server which has to respond. The server cannot initiate
interactions.
XML-RPC is both widely avalaible, and very easy to implement.

Like David said below, you need to import WConio but then repemeber
when you *import someLib* you have to use qualified names such as

Example:

if s == "right":
WConio.gotoxy(10,10)
WConio.putch("W")

The raw_input('Who Goes there?') function writes out the arg and then
