: Nano-X does not run as a network server (yet). It is mainly for
: embedded devices, which don't normally want or need the overhead of
: a network enabled server.
: If you really need a distributed server, then you will probably have to
: stick with X. But if you want to run your apps on the same
: processor as your server, then we're glad to have you aboard.
It's about a two-liner fix to add network connectivity to the
nano-X client/server paradigm. I think we should do it.
However, Nano-X does not have support for byte swapping
and sizeof(int) fixups, so the network connectivity will only
work if the endianness and sizeof(int) are the same.
