Window objects have the following methods, among others:
<dl><dt><table cellpadding=
"0" cellspacing=
"0"><tr valign=
"baseline">

117' xml:id='l2h-

"method">open
</tt></b>(
</nobr></td>
<td><var></var>)
</td></tr></table></dt>
Override this method to open a window. Store the MacOS window-id in
<tt class=
"member">self.wid
</tt> and call the
<tt class=
"method">do_postopen()
</tt> method to
register the window with the parent application.
<dl><dt><table cellpadding=
"0" cellspacing=
"0"><tr valign=

118'
class=
"method">close
</tt></b>(
</nobr></td>
<td><var></var>)
</td></tr></table></dt>
Override this method to do any special processing on window
close. Call the
<tt class=
"method">do_postclose()
</tt> method to cleanup the parent

"method">do_postresize
</tt></b>(
</nobr></td>
<td><var>width, height, macoswindowid
</var>)
</td></tr></table></dt>
Called after the window is resized. Override if more needs to be done
than calling

</code>.
