Module trap - An asynchronous network messaging system for occam-pi

An asynchronous network messaging system for occam-pi.

The Trap nameserver trapns must be running in order for Trap programs to find each other. By default, it will assume the nameserver is running on localhost; to specify where it really is, create a file called .trap.ns in the current directory containing the hostname.
