Hi Chris,

Did you see the touchy changes on master that were pushed yesterday?
Pavel made it possible to create any number of new tabs with embedded
programs in touchy.  Here is a test of embedding xterm to show the
full current tool table.

I was able to do that by just adding to the ini:

[DISPLAY]
EMBED_TAB_NAME = Tools
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND = xterm -into {XID} -rv -fn lucidasanstypewriter-bold-14 -e 
watch -n1 cat simpockets.tbl

I did not try embedding gladevcp but I am sure it will work since the
embedding works the same way as in AXIS.  I think this is a great
flexible solution, not being specific to gladevcp (allowing cameras
etc) and also not requiring that the user modify the distributed glade
file which will make future updates difficult as I have mentioned
worrying about before.

Chris
