Well, I first started the code with 4.0.6 php (socket, fread, fwrite, etc).
That worked fine for sending normal x10 commands (btw the socket code in
4.0.6 is experimental).  But, I couldn't read big strings.  I could read
the real time clock, but not the x10 state table.  More than likely its a 
timing issue.  Anyway, in my blind rampage, I installed a snaps copy of the
php cvs tree, which contains almost all of the C sockets library.  So now
I have socket_recv, socket_send, etc.  The x10 commands still work, but
reading strings does not.....

I thought Karl had his leopard working with Homedaemon (x10, ir, modules, etc.).
Just as a passthrough device, though.  I could be wrong about this (I don't
have it running). 

BTW, have you guys heard anything from Mark Day????
