Thomas over at the winboard forum has done something similar with VB and specialized client/server programs, but I think it would make more sense (and be more cross platform, plus we all already have ICS clients) to put it on ICC. Another possibility would be a mod to Xboard/Winboard, with similar purpose. I do not think it would be that hard - a few weeks work possibly. anthony
