AFAIK no, but it might help.

WPPS can run an external application.
What I had in my mind is that you have one single script that connects it own
STDOUT to a widget.
I tried to implement it and its not simple as the command line script is
linear while the Wx GUI application works with callbacks.
So once I run the MainLoop my script effectively loses control.

One solution might be to notice if the user is running the script
and then open the widget and run the script again maybe with an
extra command line flag or an environment variable.
When the script runs this second time, the module would not do anything
as this time the "real code" should work.
