Instead of opening a port...
most people have email these days... why not just do a spawn of the email client with the army list in pdf format...
So I use Linux and here is how possibly you could do it...
Java can start a batch file you could create a batch file called send.bat (in some folder that is on your PATH) -- like so:
@echo off
"/usr/lib/thunderbird-2.0.3/thunderbird" -compose "to=%1,subject=%2,attachment='file:///%3',body=%4"
#On windows and Mac this would be different of course
Then all you'd have to do is execute
send Toaddr Subject Attachmentfile bodyfile
Then all I have to do is change my batch file and the command string to call the batch file (this must be configurable) to send the list.
Like I said in my earlier post cut and paste is a little unintuitive...
Still think select a BG and assign a general would be a nice feature.. then releate via color if possible
