Hi, My ssh client internally has a fairly powerful Python library for creating tabbed application-specific terminal emulator displays; you could think of it as "VteRunner". For example, if you want to create a little application that wraps e.g. "mutt" with buttons for sending mail, that's not too hard. Right now I have applications for both ssh and sudo. You can find the code here: http://svn.gnome.org/svn/hotwire-ssh/trunk/hotssh/hotvte/ _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
