in thread Tk and Threads

Alot of what BrowserUk says may be true, on Windows, which he uses.

Care to tell me which bits of what I say might not be true on windows?

But on linux, threads work a bit differently.

With the notable exception of the *nix implementation leaking memory like sieve when the Windows implementation doesn't, can you demonstrate any other platform dependant differences?

    That's the one I'm talking about!! And it's very very important. :-)
