Hi everybody!

I've done some experiemental UI changes to pytddmon in the pytddmon_monitor_integration branch.


What's changed?

* Details window:
  - displaying both number of files and number of tests
  - less verbose output from logs that are all OK (they took up way too much space in of the log, you're generally more interested in what failed..)
* Main window:
  - switched from displaying number of un-interpretable source files, to simply ?SYNTAX ERROR (this pays a little tribute to C64 BASIC for those of you old enough!)

I think we can do more things to improve the UI of pytddmon:

* Add a scrollbar in details window
* Sort the logs so that failing ones are displayed first
* Possibly changing the brown syntax error color to something prettier (suggestions?)
* Decrease font size when displaying syntax error, it's a bit big now :)

Does anyone have more ideas on how to improve the UI of pytddmon?

Sorry, had forgotten to push this. Done now. Also, shortened to ?ERROR.
