GUI

These classes implement the GUI used by the Terminal.

The GUI is built using PySide2, a Python wrapper around Qt5.

These classes are all currently used only by the Terminal.

If performing any GUI operations in another thread (eg. as a callback from a networking object), the method must be decorated with @gui_event which will call perform the update in the main thread as required by Qt.

Note

Currently, the GUI code is some of the oldest code in the library – in particular much of it was developed before the network infrastructure was mature. As a result, a lot of modules are interdependent (eg. pass objects between each other). This will be corrected before v1.0
