GUI available besides NAGAT! (fwd)

[Subhendu Ghosh]

sourceforge.net/projects/osesm

The parser is currently configured to return objects and the gui portion 
builds the tree.

To make the module more independent - I am using autoload features,
and defining some additional data members to track sourcefiles for each 
object.  Also need to add functions such that initialization does not 
force a reading of all the configuration.

Need to add modules to read the status log, the v2.0 cached config, and 
archives.

Sure the config parser part could be written in a week if you had a week's 
worth of time ;)

I haven't yet posted my patches as it is not yet functional :(
