(useful for simulating synthetic foam-like materials)

gui window

by external codes

prototype "-watch" option to watch for specific files according to 
a pattern (use 'w' shortcut in GUI to test)

- partial fix for skipping empty time steps

better display of solver help

refactored the solver code (new GmshRemote class to handle all remote
executions, including solvers)

Encapsulate toolkit-dependent global drawing functions in new
drawContextGlobal class, and add a static drawContextGlobal to
drawContext, with a default version that does nothing.

This allows to have a completely virtualized drawing system: we can
now ship a library with a fully working graphic system, indepedent of
the widget toolkit. A client code just needs to subclass
drawContextGlobal to get working graphics (see
e.g. api_demos/mainAntTweakBar.cpp)

- moved GUI to FlGui + added experimental QGui to test Qt

- fixed most MSVC and gcc compiler warnings

- converted some remaining tabs to whitespace (that's why the patch is
  so large; please try to remember to indent with 2 spaces and not
  tabs when you commit stuff to CVS)

- merged modified patch from Konstantinos Poulios to allow saving
  physical/partition as element tags in mesh formats that don't
  support them natively

moved all string options to std::string

added File->Clear + changed behaviour of File->New (now just adds a
new model)

allow smaller fonts for palettes (test with "-deltafontsize")

use display list for 3d arrows (approx. 2x speedup on my laptop for
large vector views) and spheres

removed static quadrics (wrong when \exists multiple gl contexts),
replaced with correct(?) init in drawContext

- fix bb computation to avoid model jumping around when adding points in z=0 plane
- pass interpol matrices as ref

without recompiling
