Hmm, something a bit more generic would be preferred (w/ patches ?).
There's an item on my TODO list that will allow ``display variable''
so that people can show the values of individual variables in a
consistent way. The possible values of ``variable'' will be
documented - in much the same way as the output of ``show ...'' isn't.
The ultimate objective is to write a tcl based front end that will
give you xload-style throughput graphs, connect/disconnect buttons,
timeout slide bars etc.
