Re: IGS client server protocol.
The IGS client protocol is not documented. If you connect
to IGS with telnet and "toggle client on" you will see
the protocol. Each line of text starts with a number that
identifies the type of information on that line. You can ask
tweet for a C header file of defines which gets a one line
comment for each number. After that you are on your own. But
it's not too hard. I've written two clients, and there is
a lot of reverse engineering involved. I think tweet likes
to control who gets the header file, so it is not on-line
anywhere.
