Hi Thomas,

(Sorry, I hadn't noticed this as it wasn't on hatari list.)

Maybe it's some change related to the recent Apple
M1 release i.e. ARM based Mac Minis and laptops,
and them being able to run iOS stuff.

Ok, thanks!

Yep.  I don't think the Python UI is really a replacement for it in its 
current state.

E.g. the Hatari error handling would need to be
better integrated with the UI process. At least
error dialogs should be shown by Python UI, not
by Hatari.
