Hopefully better late than never...

Seamus' event display should work just fine (although it might need a
little tweaking to accommodate the full middle MWDC plane).  Miha also
wrote a very nice display package in 2008 though -- you might want to
give that a shot.  You can find info on that here:

His development target was the BB hadron package rather than the
electron stack (hence the references to the dE-plane and E-plane), but
he wrote the package with general purpose use in mind.
