in thread Why are people not using POE?

Actually, one of POE's published strengths is a very good interoperability with GUI toolkits. I was once making a project that involved threads and Tk, it wasn't easy to combine them... but I was told that POE makes it very easy.

    That maybe true. For your future reference though, the secret to "easy threads" with Tk or Gtk2 is that you need to create your worker threads (and put them to sleep) BEFORE you start building your GUI.

      That's what I found out while looking for ways to make them play together :-)

      POE acts similarly, from what I understood.
