I was searching for a solution since 2 months now. Didn't know about subprocess ... I was looking in the wrong direction (threading, using another GUI toolkit, ...). It's the best way to do what I want, making a "plugin" upon an existing app. No more conflicts between toolkits. I can pass the data I wish to display through a file, serialized with pickle (I found some tutorials on the web, after 1 hour I was able to have everything up and running). So thank you very much !!
