New Revision: 22799

Modified:
   arm/trunk/TODO
   arm/trunk/armrc.sample
   arm/trunk/interface/controller.py
   arm/trunk/util/torTools.py
Log:
Moving additional functionality from the interface to torTools utility.
- Moving heartbeat functionality out of the log panel. This is in preparation for the panel's rewrite.
- Now that torTools.Controller is making use of several event types it makes more sense for its setControllerEvents method's mandatory events listing to live here. This also simplifies /interface/controller.py a little.
