	Netscape has (long ago) published the source code for such an
application called remote.c.  You can get it from their web site, although
I'm not sure where it is.  If you want, I can send the file to anyone who
wants it.  (It's just a simple command line utility for sending signals to
the top netscape window.)

 If you love something, write it in C; if it compiles, it is yours; 
                     if it doesn't, it never was.
