[plt-scheme] accessing a running web server

Hi Rob,

Have a look at the "net-repl.plt" package on PLaneT and see if it does  
what you want:

     http://planet.plt-scheme.org/display.ss?package=net-repl.plt&owner=untyped

If not, please send an email to Noel (copied above) or myself. We had  
a first stab at it but haven't used it in anger yet.

Cheers,

-- Dave
