I haven't tried, but the non-UI parts should work fairly well. The GUI
parts might require a bit more work. For example, I did use
CoreGraphics for speedier drawing (NSBitmapImageRep's pixel-formats are
different from Squeak's).
Great idea, though, please go ahead and try it! I will try to help as
best as I can.
