The application seems very nice, but could there be some more detailed
installation instructions for those mortals that don't know nothing
about perl and CPAN (other than "reading about it on the internet")?
The "perl Makefile.PL" thing complains about missing "Gtk2::SourceView
1", but already installed it, as can be seen here:

$ dpkg -l | grep SourceView
ii  libgtk2-sourceview-perl                        1.000-0ubuntu3
                                       Perl wrappers for the
GtkSourceView widget

I'm  using [K]Ubuntu 8.04.

If I resolve this I will probably be blocked next on the
AutomateStudio thing, as I have no idea on how to install a CPAN
module.

Anyway, the screen shots are pretty impressive, so good job.
