If you're interested in a python controller gui then you might want to
look an krkhan's arm gui. It's a GTK interface that provides a sizable
chunk of what arm does. To use it just run arm with the '--gui'
argument. I've dropped it from the dev codebase since it was
unmaintained, but it's in the latest release (1.4.5).

Also, you might want to look at stem.process rather than using a
custom launcher...

That said, github says that the last change was 25 days ago so guess
this was just an experiment. :)
