Interaction with sbox process

Hi, folks.

Seems to me the sbox process is the main process that handles the interaction with the user. AFAICS, there are some named pipes (e.g. /dev/commander and /dev/weboutput) that are set up to communicate with this process.

I wonder if there are specifications available, hence: is there a detailed list of which strings you can send to the sbox process using which pipes / other IPC?

Unfortunately dgstation haven't been very forthcoming in providing such information to users. I assume they at least provide it to developers.
But I hope they'll provide such information to the public as it gives more people a chance to do something useful with it rather then just handful of people they've flagged as developers.

If they really want to make this box a big success, they MUST provide this type of information. After all, I am not asking for the source code of SBOX (though I would not mind having it), I simply want to know how to address the various controls from the CLI.

Any idea, gents, where one can reach the developers?

Dgstation listed this email as a help for those insterested in doing some work on ipbox:

dev.plugin(at)dgstation.co.kr

But whether you'll get an answer I don't know.
