In 2008 when David Scherer and I updated Visual from version 3.x to
5.x, we looked into various options for handling windows and events
cross-platform and couldn't at that time find something adequate and
suitable. I can't now remember for sure whether we considered PyGUI.
Certainly using some such framework would be good, though it is quite
possible that if the framework itself depends in the Mac version on
Cocoa we would face the same impossible barrier on the Mac having to
do with thread priorities.
