i don't know. It's something that people and web pages told/tell me. I am hardly doing GUI programming myself. Is it maybe because only the main thread receives signals? did you try out remote_init_threads(1)? If that doesn't work for you i'd like to fix it or apply your patch in some way. cheers, holger > Simon > _______________________________________________ > py-dev mailing list > py-dev@codespeak.net > http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/py-dev > -- Metaprogramming, Python, Testing: http://tetamap.wordpress.com Python, PyPy, pytest contracting: http://merlinux.eu _______________________________________________ py-dev mailing list py-dev@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/py-dev
