Howdy,

I started working last week on a GTK GUI for QEmu.  I've made enough 
progress that I wanted to share the results with everyone and collect 
feedback--especially any feedback regarding what should be added/changed 
for inclusion in Fabrice's tree.

Here's a rough overview of the features:

 o XShmImage based display widget--initial performance tests indicate it 
has identical overhead to the SDL GUI.
 o GUI-based pause/save/restore/eject
 o Screenshot (supporting all formats of GdkPixbuf--png, jpg, bmp, etc.)
 o Video Capture (based on ffmpeg--currently uses mpeg1)
 o Fullscreen mode with autohiding toolbar (thanks to 
libview--http://view.sf.net)
 o Software scaling (so there's no black bars in full screen mode like 
with SDL)
 o XEmbed support (a pygtk based POC tabbed GUI is available at 
http://qemu.codemonkey.ws/qemu-tabbed.py)

You can grab a tarball at:

http://qemu.codemonkey.ws/tarballs/qemu-gtk-20051109.tar.gz

Or you can clone my hg tree with:

hg clone http://qemu.codemonkey.ws/hg/gtk

A couple screenshots are available at:

http://qemu.codemonkey.ws/screenshots/

Any feedback is greatly appreciated.  A bunch of stuff is not there yet 
(there's barely any accelerator support so you can't get to the monitor 
yet) and I haven't tested on non true color X servers so your results 
may vary.

Regards,

Anthony Liguori
