I've used the slider and menu items from vpython and they have the
advantage that you can keep all control within the vpython environment.
They don't provide a complete GUI environment but allow a small degree
of control but are not really suitable fro applications that might
require lists of items that are larger than that that can be displayed
in the one window and the lack of the exact size of the label window
leads to some rather unexpected side effects.
The mechanisms for transferring information from the visual python
environment to a different GUI can get a little involved, o if you want
something within the display window they still provide a nice quick
alternative to multiple threads and queues. There is a controls.display
attribute that allows you to mix controls and visual python objects in
the same display.
