    An embedded gview

    This is a version of gview which can be embedded directly in a simulation. It replaces the client/server model with a simple set of two queues within the same process: this transfer mechanism is implemented in gview/transfer_local.c.

    For the moment this has little advantage over using the standard client/server system (using WebSockets), but this will be useful when we implement direct GPU rendering, which require the client and server to run on the same process.
