Hello,

On the Chrome Apps platform, one could connect one Chrome App with another Chrome App via a postMessage API.  Is there a similar method of connecting two node-webkit apps together so they can pass messages to each other?

Basically, we have two separate apps maintained by two separate teams, and we'd like the two to be able to communicate if both are running on the same computer.  Here's the equivalent API on the Chrome Apps/Extensions platform:  http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/runtime#method-connect

Thank you for any help!

Use web-sockets and node.js.

Or use named pipes.
