Ok, I will do that.
For the interface, you are right. It is not easy at all! I am still
learning...
As said previously, I am interested by this package, just because the
flight simulator CRRCSim use it. By the way, I will ITP it later. Note
that there is already an Ubuntu ITP for it.
For using it, there is a few tutorials:
