EDIT: After the installation of Ghostscript 9.50, which I obtained from
https://pages.uoregon.edu/koch/Ghostscript-9.50-Full.pkg,
the program writes the png file as expected on key "s" -- PIL requires the presences of Ghostscript, which is not provided with the purchase of a Mac.
Using python 3.8.1 and the current version of PIL:
on keys "t" or " ", the program toggles or restarts as expected.
on key "s", the program writes the .eps file, but it does not write the .png file. The program continues to run and produces the following error message when it fails to write the png file.
