     I guess we must call some kind of GTK+ "alert" function when there is
     new output.  I am not sure that it is helpful in practice.

The function we call is gtk_window_set_urgency_hint 

What that actually does, is up to the window manager.

There have been a number of requests for a "preferences" dialog to set these 
kind of things on a per-user basis.  Perhaps we should do that.
