...I think this is a great idea, because it's the best of both worlds:
I could make the new object gem_mouse, and the abstraction will be
gemmouse...

...It's not clear atm how we would do this on osx...at any rate, I
don't think this is something we should talk about until after the
current release "attempt" ;-) I've got way too much on my plate in the
short term, and am barely getting time to finish up the gem_mouse and
gemkeyboard...

...hmmm, I haven't been able to try out your "render objects" errors:
I doubt that's coming from tcl/tk, tho...the GOP slowness is definitely
a bother, but also definitely related to XCopyArea(), which has not
been converted/updated to CG, and is the MAJOR bottleneck in tk
drawing, at least atm...fixing that is next on my agenda after the
current gem/pd stuff I'm doing, so hold on...

...sorry, I've just been using project builder...disturbing about what
you've found with some crash between pd and gem...we should check that
out closely...
