Last change on this file since 9 was 9, checked in by mmc, 19 years ago

Massive changes across the entire toolkit. Rearranged the
XML description to agree better with new documentation and
conventions.

Added a small start of Rappture.interface and Rappture.number
in the python directory. This is the new way of doing Rappture--
by declaring variables directly in the program, not using XML
directly at all.
