18 * Mini-DDE implementation
19
20 Most transactions involve a topic name and an item name (choose these
21 as befits your application).
22
23 A client can:
24
25 - ask the server to execute commands (data) associated with a topic
26 - request data from server by topic and item
27 - poke data into the server
28 - ask the server to start an advice loop on topic/item
29 - ask the server to stop an advice loop
30
31 A server can:
32
33 - respond to execute, request, poke and advice start/stop
34 - send advise data to client
35
36 Note that this limits the server in the ways it can send data to the
37 client, i.e. it can't send unsolicited information.
