Flightdeck-UI MVM Application + version 0.1.4 released

[fdui@openlight.com]

*** The Flightdeck-UI project is looking for testers and user feedback
*** on all platforms.  If you come up with your own themes and control
*** files, they may be included in the distribution.  In addition,
*** links to good screenshots can be added to the Flightdeck-UI site.
*** The MVM application can also show your name, organization, URL and
*** a brief description for any control file or theme that you create.

The goal of the Flightdeck-UI project is to apply ideas from aircraft
instrumentation design to general purpose user interfaces.

This library release 0.1.4 is combined with the Multi-Variable Monitor
(MVM) application release 0.1.0.

The MVM is a highly configurable Flightdeck-UI application, which
includes a graphical editor and theme support.  Little (or even none
at all) coding is required to use MVM, although everyone is welcome to
code as much as they like.

Check out the MVM screenshots at "http://www.openlight.com/fdui/screens.html".

Linux/Unix users in particular can quickly assemble a monitoring
application that would run in a small window on the desktop.  An
example is included in the distribution.

MVM has been tested under Linux (RedHat 7.2) and a little under
Windows 95.  Although these are still development releases, the MVM
should already be a useful application, and will probably look very
nice on some corner of your desktop.

The project homepage is at "http://www.openlight.com/fdui/".  Both the
Flightdeck-UI library and the MVM application are open source/free
software.  They are written in Python and require Tkinter.
