Shareboard is a local HTTP server which works like clipboard. After you start the server, you can simply set/get the text data to that server with HTTP communication. It is useful to connect two different process.
Shareboard also give you a builtin HTTP viewer to display the data. You can use this HTTP viewer to visualize your HTML text.

The basic mechanisms of Shareboard is described below. Shareboard use HTTP connection to set/get text data.

everytime when you set text data. For example, you can use sed
to modify
the text data with the commands below
$ shareboard start -c 'sed "s/Hello/Hi/g"'
With this shareboard server, data will be modified with the command like below
$ shareboard set "Hello World"

Shareboard is developed to help a program such as a Markup viewer for vim. That's why it has builtin HTML viewer written in Qt. To enable this feature, you have to install the following libraries
After you install these libraries, simply start the Shareboard server with
-v
option like
$ shareboard start -v
The builtin HTML viewer will automatically be refreshed everytime when you set new text data.
Shareboard is originally inspired by mkdpreview.
