I have something which may be related -- we had a requirement
for a "command-line console" which could operate while our
application was in GUI mode, which we used mainly for debugging
the GUI. It subclasses the Python "InteractiveConsole" and wraps
it in a PyGtk text window, which allows you to textually interrogate
and modify Python objects in whatever namespace you like. The
effect is a kind of "interactive scripting."
This is definitely a Python beast, though. If your app is Python,
it may be useful, but it doesn't know anything about Octave.
I have a standalone version of this code, which I could send you
if you like.
