<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-FrameWork" title="FrameWork: Interactive application framework. (deprecated) (Mac)"><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FrameWork</span></code></a> module contains classes that together provide a framework
for an interactive Macintosh application. The programmer builds an application
by creating subclasses that override various methods of the bases classes,
thereby implementing the functionality wanted. Overriding functionality can
often be done on various different levels, i.e. to handle clicks in a single
dialog window in a non-standard way it is not necessary to override the complete
event handling.</p>

<dd><p>This routine is the main event loop, call it to set your application rolling.
<em>Mask</em> is the mask of events you want to handle, <em>wait</em> is the number of ticks
you want to leave to other concurrent application (default 0, which is probably
not a good idea). While raising <em>self</em> to exit the mainloop is still supported
it is not recommended: call <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">self._quit()</span></code> instead.</p>
<p>The event loop is split into many small parts, each of which can be overridden.
The default methods take care of dispatching events to windows and dialogs,
handling drags and resizes, Apple Events, events for non-FrameWork windows, etc.</p>
<p>In general, all event handlers should return <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">1</span></code> if the event is fully handled
and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">0</span></code> otherwise (because the front window was not a FrameWork window, for

other windows like the Sioux console window. Calling <code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MacOS.HandleEvent()</span></code>

This will tell the inner interpreter loop to call the application event handler
<em>async_dispatch</em> whenever events are available. This will cause FrameWork window
updates and the user interface to remain working during long computations, but
will slow the interpreter down and may cause surprising results in non-reentrant
code (such as FrameWork itself). By default <em>async_dispatch</em> will immediately
call <em>our_dispatch</em> but you may override this to handle only certain events
asynchronously. Events you do not handle will be passed to Sioux and such.</p>
