Sending REST commands to a server
Anyone know of an object that supports the ability to send REST style commands to a server?
For example, from a terminal window (on a mac), I can type
curl http://localhost:10250/row/2/column/12 -X PUT --data red
This posts the value "red" to a resource using the PUT request mechanism.
I would like to not have to spawn to a shell to produce these commands as they can happen quite often (in time to music) and so speed is important.
Thanks,

I tried using the 'shell' external to do this but I'm suspecting that the 'shell' external might have a bug where new arriving commands are overwriting the old ones before the old ones have finished executing. Thus if you send a lot of commands very quickly, they don't work.
Anyone know anything more on this?
