I have a start on a servo config program using the stepconf framework.
Since it uses the same frame work (glade python) ultimately if deemed
desirable the two couls be compined in the future.
It is just a early work in progress that I play with from time to time.
trying out different ideas... When, I get it more more functional I will offer
it
to 2.4 Trunk. Right now is not the right time anyways, even if it was ready..

That would be very good. But more work then I want to do now :)
A EMC frontend GUI that uses GLADE to build it, so advanced/industrial users,
could really customize the look would be even better.
