Good, thanks. I'll just call signalSemaphoreWithIndex directly.
As a general rule, is it permissible to call signalSemaphoreWithIndex
from a Win32 thread other than the one in which the interpreter is
running? I think it should be OK as long as I take care not to allow
two or more of my Win32 threads to be executing signalSemaphoreWithIndex
at the same time, but I don't have any experience programming threads
on any platform, so I'm more or less fumbling my way through this.
