In this first lesson we'll see, in a simple example, most of what we'll need to know going forward. We'll write a simple actor that responds to messages sent to it by printing their contents. The messages we'll send are std::string objects. When the actor receives a std::string message containing the text "Hello world!", it duly prints it out. We start by including the main Theron header: # include <Theron/Theron.h> Next, we define the Printer actor.
