First question: is Start an accurate replacement for Resume, or can it only be used to start a thread created in the suspended state?

Second question: now that Suspend is deprecated, what should a thread do if it wants to stop processing pending a subsequent resume? Please note that I'm asking about a thread suspending itself: I'm aware of the issues that argue against external suspension (on platforms where this is possible).

I note that http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/classes/tthread.html gives no indication that Suspend and Resume are deprecated.

Good point. I must adapt fpdoc to cater for this.
