Day One - Getting the gaze position

The SMI IViewX RED eye tracker steams the gaze coordinates on a UPD stream configured on port 4444. The following code is how I managed to hook the C# client up to access the stream and simply print it to the console window. This is the initial version that concluded the first day. I got the gaze coordinates from the tracker into my C# code. Good enough.

First output from the UPD Eye Tracker client/server program
