In case it's of use to others in looking at the options, I have now put the code here: http://www.cvine.plus.com/event-loop/event-loop.scm I have no problem with any parts of it going into guile if thought useful. I was inclined to apply the MIT license to it but that seems fairly pointless give that guile is covered by the LGPL. The interesting part is not so much the event loop but the use of coroutines to give "await" type semantics. This particular implementation does allow tasks to run in their own threads in a safe way. It works for my limited purposes but I imagine it could be much improved. Chris
