in reply to IPC Messages Redux

I think JSON, YAML -- are the right things. SOAP would also work, but it's not so simple to use and not so fast. Also you can use Storable, if both applications use the same version of Perl it won't be a problem, but IMHO JSON is more clean solution.

    ++JSON. Prefix the message body with a fixed length header for easy/fast parsing. Header has... Digest? Nonce? Length? Whatnot. Validate, JSON::XS::decode_json(). Ta!
