What does "same thread" mean? I'll risk a guess.
well, that's possible - i'll ask on gtk2hs list too
currently, i believe that mainGUI just runs endless loop processing queue of GUI events
You are both right. mainGUI does just run an endless event processing loop but callbacks for events (like button clicks) are indeed ffi "wrapper" callbacks and so do get run in a fresh thread. Your 'guiThread' is blocked in the mainGUI call, so nothing ever happens in that Haskell thread until the even loop terminates. Duncan
