For older Pharo versions there exists framework for native UI named Phobos
that uses XULRunner to display user interface.

> These ase some of the most important problems:

>  - I need simple window with menu (how to attach menu items to menu
> handlers???? - no answer in examples)
>  - Toolbar with icons (how????????)
>  - components (as i understand - Morphic subclasses, it is the simplest
> part)
>  - when window opens i need handler to do some setup actions. Handler

>  - i need another handler, which fires when you try to close Pharo or

>  - how to programmatically close window??????
