Hi everyone, If you want to inspect the configuration there is also a PDF produced by dot (graphviz) if you have the pydot package installed on your system. This happens automatically when running the simulator if the package is available. You could envision starting from this dot description and create an SVG (instead of the PDF) which in turn could be edited by Javascript in a browser.

There is no GUI for configuration, and I know of no plans to add one. Having worked with SimNow a bit, I can tell you that the charm of a GUI fades pretty rapidly when you want to build complex systems with lots of cores. That said, I know it does make the learning curve a little less steep.if someone wanted to develop a GUI and contribute it we would gladly accept it.

Here are some examples: http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/attachments/20091008/7f7ef449/attachment-0001.jpg http://www.mepem.com/resume/simnow_01.PNG http://www.coreboot.org/images/c/c3/Winbuild-simnow-run.png Question 1: Is there a GUI available for gem5? Question 2: Are there plans to add a GUI for gem5 configuration options? The drag-and-drop capability of SimNow is awesome (see second linked picture). Question 3: How difficult would it be to create a GUI for gem5? (Is gem5 sufficiently stable that it makes sense to develop a GUI?)
