Dear All,

Since the udev developers are planning to use long device names, I
think, I need to make more changes to the main GUI, so that long
device names would be fully readable in both list boxes. This can be
done in two ways:
i) Place the list boxes in vertical order so that both use the maximum
width possible
ii) Use a tabbed page control to hold the list boxes where each page
would hold one list box

Please, comment.

Edward
