I've started working again on an 'xojpanel replacement' that should be much 
more functional. 

An earlier version that I had put together just got too big and complicated, 
so I started over from scratch. The newer version looks a lot better, I think.
It may still be too early to decide exactly how the application should look 
or what it should contain, but the more thought put into it in the beginning, 
the better, IMHO.

I have the application building into a new directory under hpoj-0.7/apps/. 
It's a little too early to make the code available. There isn't much of it 
yet.

On my site are screenshots of the two windows created so far. These are 
'previews' created by the Qt designer.

The web server has been a little messed up, so if you don't see a page with 
OfficeJet GUI screenshots, try again later.

Is it worth continuing in this direction? Let me know what you think.


Johan:

If you keep looking, you may still find things in the project you can fix.
