all this thing does is insert a hook where gdk passes events off to 
gtk+, and dump information about each one.  you could use that 
information to synthesize events and propagate them, but i don't expect 
it will work very well.  i was really wanting to see if i could write 
something like Spy++ which comes with MSVC6.

there's a different project, based in C, that wants to use the XTest 
extension and actually implement event recording and playback; can't 
remember the name at the moment, but i remember discussing it on 
gtk-devel-list.
