Hi, I'd like to retire forkIO and friends by using Delimited Continuations instead. Am I dead wrong here in my understanding of Delimited Continuations or can I pursue in this direction? The most immediate use for this is actully GUI problems where I'd use del-conts in place of forkIO for long-running computations because once I forkIO the computation so as not to block the UI thread I cannot call GUI code from the end of that thread. Well I can but then the app crashes because of single threading issues. Günther
