Re: [Qemu-devel] Dummy Panel.

[John Bradley]

The underlying protocol is flexible enough, though only binary at the moment. I 
could image a situation were a device driver communicated with the emulation 
using it or alternately an application communicated with some hardware and 
passed it on to the emulator. As the protocol is quite simple and open it could 
easily be adapted, the GDummyPanel could be viewed as a separate project just 
one of many potential clients.
Code would have to be added to each different emulation as the specifics of the 
IO of each vary.
