Not quite, I had already done something like that.  What I was saying is it
would be nice if there was a class, say ShellWindow, that had wxWindow as an
ancestor and had the same basic __init__ interface (parent, id, pos, size,
style) plus any extra parameters for the Shell such as a locals dict, intro
text, etc.  That way you wouldn't have to know that the "window" is really
"shell.editor" and not just "shell", and it could more easily be used as a
control/widget/component like any other in app builders like Boa or
wxDesigner.

What I've got:

>     return shell.editor
>

What I would like:

from PyCrust.shell import ShellWindow   # or whatever

def runTest(frame, nb, log):
    shell = ShellWindow(nb)
    return shell


Creating a ShellWindow class that derives from both Shell and Editor almost
does it, but there are attribute and method name clashes between the two so
it never quite worked right when I tried it.
