That is the main reason why I am that interested in fpGUI. I suppose it 
is the less complex Widget Type that has this feature, and maybe we can 
extract the code, that is not requiring a GUI at all, into a common 
directory tree and construct a very simple "active noGUI" Widget set 
that also uses same, thus allowing for "headless" embedded applications 
that don't have a GUI but feature TTimer and decent "standard" inter 
Thread communication.

On top of this more advanced "remote GUI" applications can be planned 
such as "ifi" (according to Martin, using a remote control GUI program 
done with Lazarus, coupled via a byte stream), Android (using a remote 
control GUI program done in Java), Silverlight/Moonlight (using a remote 
control GUI program done in Java or in Prism), HTML (a restricted HTML 
based remote GUI), ... you name it.
