For those folks which are playing with, or helping document gladevcp:

yesterday another set of changes relating to gladevcp was merged into master, 
and for the time being we consider it feature-complete (bug-complete ;-?). 
Creativity on our behalf will most likely turn towards new or improved HAL 
widgets; the programming interface is considered stable.

Important changes:
- a gladevcp panel may also run in Axis' place for PyVCP, not just a tab - see 
GLADEVCP option for the inifile
- all gladevcp-related HAL commands may now be collected in a single 
POSTGUI_HALFILE - it's not necessary anymore to pass one halcmd file per 
gladevcp tab/panel since one may assure now that POSTGUI_HALFILE is run only 
after all HAL components are ready
- the wiki documentation is now in sync with the code in master, as are the 
examples under configs/gladevcp
- the API suffered a slight change (actually a simplification) - see 
configs/gladevcp/README.changes.
- Pavel fixed key forwarding - most importantly, an Escape key will 
program-abort Axis even if focus is in a gladevcp widget
- gladevcp now sports a man page

please let us know if you find errors or unclear/missing documentation.

ps: as of now, there is still a missing package dependency in master - if you 
are working off master, please do the following (I assume this will be resolved 
shortly):

sudo apt-get install python-configobj
