# To subscribers of the xforms list from "Paolo Prandini" <prandini@spe.it> :
Thank you Vince, I have already tried it, but it seems
that XForms before processing idle functions or IO bound
callbacks takes its own slice anyway (remember, we can
go on doing other things but we must wait it to complete)
and it is simply too slow for my purposes.
To everybody here: I got many suggestions, but I think
I tried maybe everything in the last two months that does
not involve modifying XForms; and then: if I have to
rewrite everything just to make it work with Xforms, why
don't simply drop it and write once for the maybe right
library? The truth is that I am quite fond of Xform.
Of course new and old ideas are always welcome, but
if other libraries (gtk?) cared about being threadsafe,
there must be some reason after all.
