Ha! Trivial ;-^
I believe the work required goes something like this:
o get insight / GDB sharing a common
event loop (the TK one I guess)
o have the program output routed
to gdb where it can in turn (gdb_stdtarg)
route it through to the console
it should be possibile to attack the two parts fairly independantly.
