tiny localhost webserver for inter-app communication

[grahama1970]

Is it possible to setup a small <60k localhost web server to run for inter-app communication on Windows ?

1)I want one app to be able to send something like :

http://127.0.0.1:8181?cmd=quit

2) the locahost web server is listening on port 8181.

3)once it receives something on port 8181, it sends the url info along to my background application built with NSIS.

Is this possible ? I am a bit new to this...but was told about http components like Indy. FYI, I can control netstat with my background app...I am assuming I can also control a tiny web server

many thanks in advance
