Fork of gmoccapy

Fork of gmoccapy was created by pippin88
Hi,
I did some work on creating a fork of gmoccapy some time ago. I think gmoccapy is great, but I use mouse and keyboard and think the layout could be better.
I also want to add some features, like a gcode quick guide and gcode translation.
I'm trying to do this the 'right' way and actually make this something other people can use, rather than just replacing the gmoccapy files with my customised ones. To do this, I've created a fork on github (github.com/pippin88/linuxcnc/tree/LCNCScreen-dev).
I've set up a virtual machine with git checkout of that branch, with run in place (so I'm getting 2.8 pre)
I've copied the gmoccapy directory in src\emc\usr_intf for my screen - lcncscreen
I'm getting error: "Can't execute DISPLAY program lcncscreen"
Essentially, I can't find any documentation about how to actually integrate a new GUI in to the LinuxCNC structure. I can find some documentation on the python / glade side of things, but not where files should go etc so that I can actually use them. I had success replacing gmoccapy.py and .glade on a standard livecd install.
Any help is appreciated.

You have to modify the Makefile and also the Submakefile, otherwise the files will not be copied to the corresponding locations.

It's been a while since I did this, and I've since given up on the fork. I now use normal gmoccapy, as it is very good now and the tabs feature is great.
I don't really have time / enough knowledge to help more than what follows. I don't know python at all - I just copy and paste and fiddle until I get something to work.
I think the relevant python and glade code was:
