I have an application which launches worker threads via NSThread's
detachNewThreadSelector: method, and once the thread is setup, it's
listening for commands from the main GUI thread.

So, what I'd like to do is know how to check to see if a thread exists
when a button is clicked where it would normally setup a new thread. I
guess I could just send a command to the thread and try to get a
response, and upon error, just assume that it should create a new
thread. But I'd think there's a better way for checking thread
existence.

Anyone have ideas on how to do this?
