That's a FAQ. Search this NG/ML for exhaustive discussions. The quick answer is: - you can't stop externally - so you must rely on frequently checking some flag inside your worker threads. Like this (untested): class MyThread(Thread): def __init__(self): Thread.__init__(self) self.running = True def run(self): while self.running: work() Set MyThread.running to False when the key is pressed.
