Which is why I recommended Twisted for the networking; it integrates with the toolkit event loops so it automagically works: http://twistedmatrix.com/projects/core/documentation/howto/choosing-reactor.html#auto15 I agree, though, that basic socket programming in the same thread as the gui's probably a bad idea. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
