On the way to work this morning, I even got it executing remote blocks ...

so client code looks like:

require 'roxy'
obj =3D Roxy.new( "otherhost", 4242 )
obj.func( [ 1, 2, 3 ] ) { |a| puts a }

... I just have to figure out how I'm going to deal with syntax that is
multi-layered...

blah.call.call2.call3

with how I have things now, blah.call would be run proxied, but .call2.call=
3
would be run locally on the result of the first call.

Anyways, that's about the only issue I have left to work out... I'll post
soon, better to post early than not at all ;)
