First I have to say: Damn nice work, I'm impressed :) However, I have two
things to say: you rely a lot on external programs, I haven't yet evaluated
whether the number of calls to os.execute() can be significantly lowered, but
I'll look into that. The second thing is, you use x-terminal-emulator for
console programs, which might be fine for Debian users, but I'd like to specify
my own terminal to use. Nevertheless, good work, thanks a lot :)
