This is a very simple UI plugin for FreeAmp, *heavily* based on cmdlineUI.
It implements a CORBA server thread (using ORBit).
 
For an example of how to use it, see simple_client.py, it should be
quite self-explanatory.

simple_client.py is available at:
 http://aviendha.bt.nu/~martin/simple_client.py
 
A little more complex client using a database in a SQL is available
upon request. A truly ugly half-assed gui client (supporting dnd) is
also available on request.
 
What you need to build this plugin:
Linux (tested on debian potato) ought to work on other unix variants.
ORBit (tested with 0.5.3)
(For a cleaner design I could have gone with ORBit-C++, but then you'd
have needed yet another library)

If you got ORBit up and running you should be ok.
 
To test it with simple_client.py you need
Python <http://www.python.org> 
ORBit-Python <http://projects.sault.org/orbit-python/>
