There are several possibilities, GTK+ is well documented, ported to many platforms and operating systems (However, maybe not to all, ConTeXt supports) and has Lua bindings.
If you can prepare a very simple example and explain how to compile it on windows, mac and windows ...
Installing the *right* GTK+ version on macosx is quite a challenge. The texlive way of perl/Tk is much more portable, even though it re-introduces perl to the mix. Another option could be to use a http browser, using Hans' mtxrun web server and client? That is pure lua, but of course it is not available until after installation of context. Best wishes, Taco
