I wanted to make a separate reply to the points below so as not to be too
long winded in my previous post. I didn't understand the pattern point
below.

My long-winded point is this: Your "server" is really a worker

What pattern is it you think I'm doing? I'm communicating between processes,
so ... after seeing my latest previous post which might clarify things, do
you still think I'm using the wrong communication method?

If it helps any, I pulled this almost directly out of the book "Cocoa
Programming" from chapt. 24 on Subprocesses and Threads which I thought fit
exactly what I was trying to do (downloadable too).
