/*
 * MMBackend
 *
 * MMBackend communicates with the frontend (MacVim).  It maintains a queue of
 * output which is flushed to the frontend under controlled circumstances (so
 * as to maintain a steady framerate).  Input from the frontend is also handled
 * here.
 *
 * The frontend communicates with the backend via the MMBackendProtocol.  In
 * particular, input is sent to the backend via processInput:data: and Vim
 * state can be queried from the frontend with evaluateExpression:.
 *
 * It is very important to realize that all state is held by the backend, the
 * frontend must either ask for state [MMBackend evaluateExpression:] or wait
 * for the backend to update [MMAppController processInput:forIdentifier:].
 *
 * The client/server functionality of Vim is handled by the backend.  It sets
 * up a named NSConnection to which other Vim processes can connect.
