A temporary stop-gap has been applied. It will check if the window exists, before every call to animate(). If it doesn't exist, it gives an error message and asks for the user to quit the animation loop, if there is one. This keeps the segfaults from occurring, but I would ultimately like a way to stop the animation loop if the window is closed. Will figure something out... I guess we can continue any other discussion on the Github page.
