Prefs

[Lars Clausen <lrclause cs uiuc edu>]

Before you get all confused about my previous mail (oops, too late:),
here's my overall view of it:

We can have the prefs dialog defined in one of two ways:

Externally defined -- the dialog is designed with Glade and somehow (I'm
not sure how that'd be the easiest) connected with the prefs structure.
Pro:  More exact design possible.  Con:  Harder to maintain.

Internally defined -- the dialog is created from the information about the
prefs fields, but with more design elements available (frames etc).  

If we can use the props structures, the second option would be the best.
