(I need it for my personnal use of FlightGear). It's a python set of scripts which use wxPython (wxWindows wrap) and pyxml to "SAX-interact" with the preferences.xml file. It should help to choose your aircraft (with a nice photo), your airport (by re processing the default.apt) and with a screenshot too (if available), your environment conditions : time, weather, ..., the ability to launch Atlas at the same time on the right port, and some additional stuff. At the moment it is only experimentation, but as soon as I have a working script, I put it under GPL, put it online and give a link to try it.
