You can create widgets and bind event methods to widgets using the shell
with PythonCard as well. You can do this with any app. There is also a
Property Editor for changing the widgets interactively at runtime, a
Namespace Viewer and a Message Watcher. There are examples of runtime widget
creation and event binding in the mail archives; it is very simple.
