What I found optimal was writing the "engine" in Ada, with a PyGtk-based Python GUI (built with GLADE). Then I used JSON over ZeroMQ to communicate between the two processes

Minimum pain, and maximum productivity.

The JSON/ZeroMQ also made it easy to build other specialized-GUI, or non-GUI, drivers for the engine process.
