MacTutor is publishing a series of articles on an IAC (nie. IPC) for
the Macintosh.  The interface is thru driver calls, so it should be 
	"a mere matter of programming" 
to get an XCMD running to talk with the IAC system.

The design can be losely called a black-board (or cork-board) where
you post and read versions of "documents".

Written by Frank Alviani and Paul Snively, it is described in the
Augest and October issues of MacTutor.  There will be follow-on
articles published in the coming months.
