PCB itself doesn't seem to use any threads but Gtk internal functions can when they are filling data such as reading the file system to set up a file browsing window. This would include the dialogs for loading to pastebuffer, saving file as, etc. There might be some other Gtk internal operation that would trigger a thread, but offhand I'm not sure what. Bill
