Coincidentally, I was experimenting with similar things yesterday.
It seems to work well.  I'm a little surprised that I can have multiple
netcats pointing to the same UDP port, but I can.  Meaning that
I can, say, have one terminal running "nc -u localhost 10000",
where I can type in  events, and others with commands like
 "nc -u -w 1 localhost 10000<score"
that will send a whole file.  The '-w 1' is needed to make netcat
quit when done; otherwise you have to interrupt it.

Yes, please!  Details! (:-))  I've been wondering how one would get vim
to send UDP...
