a server version of p9p's devdraw—sadly needed as it's not a real file server

DEVDRAW

Devdrawserver is a client-server devdraw[1]. It allows for later attachment, so it can easily be run on a remote machine, proxying the draw calls to a local devdraw.

On a remote machine:

remote% DEVDRAW=devdrawserver acme

and locally:

% dialdevdraw 'ssh remote dial -e unix!/tmp/devdrawserver'

This is still work in progress, but it's fully functional.

BUGS

Wouldn't be needed at all if devdraw was a real file server.
