TPT remote control

    It would be great if TPT could be controlled from another program (on the same machine I mean), via interfaces like D-Bus or Telnet, or even command-line. That could have lots of uses, such as use ANY scripting language to control TPT, or making for example a browser extension that open saves directly without queueing to the account (so it will work even for non-registered users) etc...

    TheWiseEyes:

    So basically a RCON using the TPT console's protocol?

    Exactly

    TheWiseEyes:

    Not a chance. That's sort of plain stupid.

    Explain why? I see lots of uses to it, and it's even easy to code (I already did it to some Python applications, should be able to do it even on C)

    Ok, hope that PT will have at least the command line parameters.

    I knew them all but the open, thanks for it, but I mean the entire console (Lua or old one)

    Just to end this thread, I'm making it by myself, if anyone wants it I'll release it when it's stable.
