Bonjour List !
I am writing a program that is supposed to listen to a tcp port, and
when a client connects,
update a UI done with wxHaskell.
Since wxHaskell is not compatible with multiple threads, I am not sure
how to do this.
an idea I have is to
- forkOS a thread which will do the network
There is indeed a claim in wxHaskell FAQ that it is incompatible with
Haskell threads. I have, however, used threads spawned with forkIO to
update wxHaskell GUI in toy apps, without any ill effects. Examples:

If the only restriction here is that all the GUI updates should happen
on the main OS thread, doesn't it mean that Haskell (green) threads
spawned through forkIO are fine, because they execute on the same OS
thread? Or does wxHaskell introduce additional restrictions?
