I used to manage a land surveying business with a Commodore 64 computer, back in the the "good ole days" and the reason that business did so well was because we "young surveyors" were the first to use computers for day-to-day land surveying tasks. My company was called "Micro Survey of Louisiana" and it was without a doubt one of the most fun and enjoyable businesses I have operated over my lifetime.

mgpnet
MGPNET(1) BSD General Commands Manual MGPNET(1)
NAME
mgpnet -- MagicPoint Netserver (provide MagicPoint presentation over the net)
SYNOPSIS
mgpnet [arguments to mgp]
DESCRIPTION
mgpnet is a small http server to be executed on the presenter's notebook computer. It lets audience read MagicPoint presentation foils on
her notebook computers, over the net.
When a presenter performs a presentation, she should invoke mgpnet instead of mgp, with the same argument. mgpnet will become an http server
running on tcp port 9999 (by default), and invokes mgp as a child process. By accessing URL http://hostname:9999/, audience will be able to
read the MagicPoint window currently displayed on the presenter's notebook. The webpage provided by mgpnet is designed in "client pull" man-
ner; audience's notebook will reload the page, several times a minute.
If no option is specified, mgpnet will print the URL to be accessed by the audience to the standard output. This is useful for indicating
the URL to be accessed on the presentation, like:
%filter "mgpnet"
%endfilter
TODO
Be network conscious. Current implementation is too naive about CPU/network usage. Presenter's notebook may be overloaded if there's too
many audiences.
