Michael, that sounds good.
Having browsed through available code, though, I find that I'll probably
have to abandon this thing as I'm not enough of a programmer to manage it ..

Thanks for all input on this subject! 
Robert

Thats not true because ...

... the missing things can be done by the vdi driver, which uses the gsx
driver for things the gsx driver can handle. See the gsx driver like a
graphic library.

They should not implemented by a combination of GSX calls, they can be
implemented in the driver which makes GSX calls.
