OK, I just found this thread that shows how to set PyOS_InputHook from
ctypes:
http://osdir.com/ml/python.ctypes/2006-12/msg00045.html
I tried it and it works fine. This will simplify the transition a lot. I
will develop some pure ctypes prototypes for the various toolkits and then
folks can begin to try this out.
Cheers,
Brian
