I have this idea and I don't have the knowledge of programming to do it. I'm
thinking about a remote paging/chat client/server for those of us who have
synch running on remote servers (in my case a vps). Here's how it would work.

Set a flag in scfg to remote paging which enables the remote paging/chat
server (JSON?). The sysop  then runs a client program that will connect to the
server and wait until there is a page. When the pager goes off it plays a
configurable sound and asks the sysop if he wishes to answer and times out
after a configurable amount of time. When the client is shutdown and/or
connection is lost, the server will mark the sysop unavailable.

It would also be good for traveling sysops. What do y'all think?
