Obviously, you cannot use NSPanel(s) in a tool that's designed for
a pure text console, eg a daemon like, say, gdomap.

However, it's an interesting issue, eg. for Interface, as Interface is compiled
as a tool -- but being able to use NSPanel(s) in Interface WOULD make sense,
eg for notifications if sth goes wrong (error handler), questions (wanna quit?)
or a mere copyright notice...

So the question "(how) is it possible to use NSPanel in a Tool?" IS valid, IMHO.
