Re: timeout function not called

Thanks James, Sorry, I didn't mean to seem like I was ignoring you, but the code I am working on is part of a bigger application and I wasn't sure how to extract the bit I was working on into a usable piece. I was also looking into using GIOChannels to see if I could make that work. Thanks

Re: timeout function not called

Thanks James for giving me my first experience with Thread programming! I tried the code you sent me, but unfortunately, I still can't get the progress_update function to run, looks like it never gets called. Any idea why this might be happening? growPart still runs. Thanks, Vicki [Hide Quo
