I'm new to Boost and new to Linux. But old to Windows. So I'm doing some 
initial development in Windows XP.

I have two executables made in different projects. I planned on using a 
message_queue to communicate between the two applications. But sending a 
message from one app does not make it to the other.

I can add and handle messages from one thread to another within the same 
application. SO I know I have things partially setup correctly.

But now I'm at a complete loss. Should two exe files be able to communicate 
through Boost message_queues? Or am I misunderstanding the whole thing?
