Definately not. Sorry, I forgot to write about this. I just included
these classes as a convenience since Piper isn't using Overflow full
scale yet. Once it starts getting integrated into the bl as well, then
I'll start assuming that everyone using Piper has Overflow installed.
The included classes are basically the UI classes from Overflow, but I
hacked them into a horrible shape by commenting out lots of stuff I'm
not using in the dl (so they can compile stand-alone without the
data-flow module). The wrapping is *very much* a work in progress
since it doesn't do anything at all yet :-). I just included them
because I was interested to see if people could compile the SWIG
extension without problems.
Instead, I suggest

Agreed. I'll maintain these few classes while I'm messing with things,
but toss them out for any kind of release., It should be quite easy to
include different parts of Overflow into Piper for a full tar.gz
distribution since they both use autoconf build systems and are set up
in the same way (since I stole a lot from the Overflow distribution
:-).
