   Don;t know the answer to this one

  It has never been impossible to control the GUI from a thread -- as a matter
of fact, the GUI is controlled by a thread itself :). Now, if you are talking
about having multiple threads accessing the GUI data structures, you will have
to provide the synchronization yourself.

   gdk_threads_enter() and gdk_threads_leave() are your friends.

   There are several apps that do that: Gaim and Urlget are 2 that comes to
mind.

Hope this helps.
