1. wave of the future
I heard a rumor that one of the waves of the near future,
starting like now, will be you won't need to download a program and
install it and run it on your computer. Instead you will click on it and
run it on someone else's computer and interact with it on your computer.
For example imagine a program is made using wxEuphoria and it runs on a
computer used by my ISP and anyone can run it and interact with it on
their computer.
Can this be made to happen?

Hi Jerry,
This look like wave of the past. At the beginning of computers there was so
called "main frame machine" that ran programs for many users connected via
terminals. Those terminals could be CRT au teletype.
Todays this technologies is improved as terminals are graphicals and in fact are
most of the time PC, and the technologies is called Terminal server session (or
remote desktop) in Microsoft world and in *nix word it's simply X windows that
enable local as well as remote session via telnet protocol or other.
regards,
Jacques Deschênes

Jerry:
I don't think this will ever happen; It would be a security nightmare.
