Hi Simon, Thanks for your reply! And huge thanks for maintaining openSUSE packages as well, they inspired me to switch to terminology and start learning EFL. I've been reading some docs yesterday and have more specific questions now... First of all, I am familiar with dispatch thread for UI from Java and Qt, both of them provide some instruments to submit events (or signals or just Callables) into dispatcher. I am almost certain there should be something similar in EFL, but what about python-elementary? Also, there is Efreet and Eio, don't know how useful are they atm but description is promising, are they also included in bindings or are those bindings Elementary-only?
