Hi folks,

I am using Apple's Cocoa documentation, which says this
about
NSApplication's runModalSession:

Runs a modal session represented by session, as defined
in a previous
invocation of beginModalSessionForWindow:. A loop using
this method is
similar to a modal event loop run with
runModalForWindow:, except with
this method the application can continue processing
between method
invocations. When you invoke this method, events for
the NSWindow of
this session are dispatched as normal. This method
returns when there
are no more events. You must invoke this method
frequently enough that
the window remains responsive to events.

The GNUstep implementation is different: IT DOES NOT RETURN
IMMEDIATELY when there are no events for the window. It
waits
instead. The only way I can get it to return is to
generate a few
MouseMoved-Events by moving the mouse.
