I second the motion to make mon config a more generic service that could be accessed (get/set) by client modules. For example, when I wrote 'cf2html' (http://www.nam-shub.com/files) I had to essentially re-write the mon config parser with slight differences. Now whenever mon changes, I have to update cf2html if I want it to stay current. It would be nice if I didn't have to do that, and if client programs could view/manipulate the mon config file just like they can manipulate the mon server through mon.cgi.
Were you the person who posted the GUI to the mailing list? I didn't have perl/tk set up but if it still works, I'd put it in the contrib archive. andrew
