    So, I've spent a little bit of time hacking on the InternalsPlugin sample, and I've managed to get a little demo working in combination with a C# app pumping data out on a WebSocket.

    It's currently very "programmers only" but it works, and that's that, it still needs a tidy up of the code which will not be very robust and for all the calculations and telemetry to be actually done and fully JSON'ified to be sent to the client.

    I have been busy with other stuff this past week, but I do plan to get more work on it in the next week or so. In the meantime, I figured I'd post it for anybody else to play with/steal/improve/laugh at.

    Disclaimers/Credits:
    - I'm no C++ guru, so the plugin bit might suck code wise, any advice there is appreciated
    - I haven't really got beyond "Yay, it works" in terms of code review.
    - The plugin part is pretty much just the internalsplugin sample writing to a pipe instead of a file
    - The idea (and some of the code) for the C# part came from this guy, without that, I would never have thought of using WebSockets in this way:

    - Some parts are hard coded to my computer config (IP Address mainly)
