Only Tree could answer this (wait - that's me). I will put this on
the wish list and see if something can be done. When I implemented
the WAE contest back in '90/'91, I never dreamed of the program
being used for multi-computer applications.
Then when I did add computers, I never thought about the WAE! It will
take some thinking to see if the multi-computer part of the program
can be used for QTC data (it probably can).

There is no provision for lockout between computers. It is something
best done with hardware - although it is possible this could be a
new feature of some kind - but probabaly would be done with a spare
bit on the parallel port instead of using the link.
