Hi, here is one way to address the setting of flags (though misnamed):
qt_enum(attr::Vector{ASCIIString}; how="|") = PyCall.pyeval(join(map(u ->
"QtCore.Qt.$u", attr), " $how "))
Basically, it calls "|" at the python level. Maybe there is a better
alternative.
As for NonModal, look at the unexported QtNamespace object, e.g.,
PySide.QtNamespace[:NonModal]
I would think you can put the GUI in a while(true) type loop so that it
doesn't close immediately. There should be nicer way though.
