I've never tried this before, but it also seems that pyglet.app can work
fine in a plain old Thread:
import pyglet
from threading import Thread
window = pyglet.window.Window(resizable=True)
thread = Thread(target=pyglet.app.run)
thread.start()
@window.event
def on_draw():
window.clear()
@window.event
def on_resize(w, h):
print(w, h)
