Hello all,
This discussion reminds me of something: Dolphin's overlapped call
mechanism, which causes the VM to make a so-marked external call on a
separate OS thread, blocking only the calling Smalltalk Process. Does
Squeak provide anything like this? It has limitations, but has been
very helpful, at least on Windows.
