Alfresco 3.0 SDK CustomAspect NO GO

Guys,Yes I'm new, but perhaps you can steer me to the correct answer.Custom Aspect would be of use to me in a solution. I got the latest labs and sdk and am working on the contentHits aspect in the sdk. It builds and creates the jar file which I deployed to the webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/lib directo

I figured out to add :

<config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Action Wizards">
      <aspects>
         <aspect name="ch:contentHits"/>
      </aspects>
   </config>

to the web-client-content-custom.xml file. It now shows up in the list and I can add the aspect to content.

Anybody know how to make it show up in the contents' information pane?

OK, after trial and error, this code:

   <config evaluator="aspect-name" condition="ch:contentHits">
      <property-sheet>
         <show-property name="ch:readCount" display-label-id="readcount" />
      </property-sheet>
   </config>

added to the web-client-content-custom.xml will result in the counter showing up. It however shows up as : $$readcount$$: 13, Changing the $$readcount$$ to something more readable is the next task.
