// A reminder to myself on how to quickly create a throw away gui app on OSX (i.e. a single file, 
// w/o relying on XCode project templates

//Notes: In general it is hard to know how to create a Cocoa based gui without using XCode.
//This issue has existed for both Objective-C and now Swift

//Furthermore, Swift<-->Cocoa syntax has changed dramatically over various Swift versions, 
//making stackoverflow posts unreliable

//This file provides a template for creating a throw away gui app
