getting erl_interface C program to reply to net_adm:ping/1

[Vance Shipley]

Pete,

You could in theory have your C-node appear as a fully 
distributed node but to do so you would have to implement
all the functionality of an Erlang runtime system at least
as far as distribution goes.  That would be a formidable 
task.  erl_interface does not attempt to do this but just
lets you communicate with a process written in C.
