Yes, but if we had a way that could be hooked right into the select/poll mechanism of the GUI, it would be more efficient. That means using a filedescriptor for synchronize stuff, but that would be OK imho, its only one global pipe. But I don't know enough about the GTK main loop to do that. But if we implement CheckSynchronize via a pipe mechanism then we could always later add that. johannes _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
