The xpamb program can act as a "classical" message bus interface between clients and servers. A client can send a data request to the message bus, which then interfaces with multiple servers and returns the data back to the client. ... For example, if the -info switch is used: xpaget xpamb -info foo then the info about that stored data buffer will be returned. If the -data is used with a specific name: xpaget xpamb -data foo then the stored data itself will be returned. ... data [name] . ...
