Something similar to Luis' proposal (Qt designer/Qt plugins) may be already available using Kommander: http://kommander.kdewebdev.org I've already used Kommander in my latest "kaseq" project: http://kmetronome.sourceforge.net/kaseq/ and I'm working now on a set of widgets for Kommander, starting by Rosegarden's knob and led. Here is a prerelease of the plugin: http://kmetronome.sourceforge.net/kaseq/kaseqplugin-0.0.1.tar.bz2 Kommander scripts are XML files, generated with a tool derived from Qt Designer. Its goal is to have a tool to build GUI for scripts and extensions, primarily for applications that can provide a DCOP interface. Rosegarden uses this mechanism already to provide the GUI/sequencer communication, and I guess that it can be extended easily to allow external DCOP controls. Kommander is a standard KDE program belonging to the kdewebdev package, and it is already used to extend Quanta in a similar way.
