I plan to work on a ncurses tool combining aspects of the existing perf tools, integrating them more, like you suggest above, but even having worked on a pygtk tool that is close to the kernel [1], I'm unsure if doing it using gtk or QT would be something that would entice more developers to use it. - Arnaldo [1] http://www.osadl.org/Single-View.111+M52212cb1379.0.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
