That library looks very useful. However I don't have gtkdocs setup 
correctly for it so can't compile. I'll look into it more when I have 
the energy.

After some more thought having gtk sliders bind to osc is only a small 
part of the functionality I have to build.

My aim is to have a deamon running on one machine that can be controlled 
from any machine on the network. Either with a hardware controller or a 
seperate gui which can peer with the daemon. The hardware controller 
wouldn't need to be attached directly to the machine running the daemon 
but in most cases it will.

I'm interested in ideas for the best approach to achieve this.

- For example allowing a gui to be turned on and off and binding to the 
daemon automatically.

- Would I make OSC the backend controller for the daemon and have the 
gui send osc controls?

etc...


Cheers.
