Creating a TCP server daemon for MBC? #34

Thanks so much for the fantastic utility!

Do you have any thoughts on adding a TCP server daemon to MBC?

It looks like you have a webmenu service that is very close to what I'm looking for, but instead of using a web browser I'm hoping for a TCP server that accepts commands.

This would allow home automation software to interact with MiSTer/MBC and also remote control systems (ie. Control4) that support TCP/IP stacks to control the MiSTer.

I believe it might be possible to combine existing tools (socat/netcat? with MBC?) to serve 'mbc stream' over a TCP socket but having this built-in would be great!
