We could add a command line argument for gdnc and gpbs to start them
with alternative service names, so you could
start a server for your windows machine on your unix machine
What about just an argument for the current app, or a default which
specifies which host to look for the server on, like NSHost (only
specifying that causes my app to try to display on the NSHost, so it
needs to be different, like GSServerHost)
The problem with that is you would need another server machine without
an X display to run the gdnc and gpbs
servers for each machine with an X display but no GNUstep.
Basically, each X display requires its own gdnc and gpbs servers.
Also, if you have two machines displaying to the same X display, they
must both use the same gdnc and gpbs
servers - so simply using a server on the local host in each case does
not work.
Really, you must connect to servers with alternative names ... that way
you can run multiple gdnc and gpbs
servers (each corresponding to a different display) on a single machine.
