    _______________________________________________________

Details:

Separate GUI (considered as client) from core (considered as server).

Core (1 server):
- runs in background (no user interface)
- manage server connections: read/write on sockets
- manage GUI client(s): send data (buffer history, ..) to them, wait for data
(user entry)

GUI (1 to N clients):
- receive data from core (buffer history, ..)
- send user entry to core

Many GUIs will be possible, and from different locations at same time.

Users can easily develop custom GUIs, following protocol used between core
and GUI.
