While Yi doesn't explicitly provide any means to do concurrency, there are two relevant points:
1. YiM has access to IO, which means you can access forkIO, MVars, async, stm, etc there 2. Yi has an action queue which can be used as a synchronization point when several threads want to access editor state concurrently As an example you could look at https://github.com/ethercrow/yi-config/blob/18e634fe38833e4331ec6db88cc7e29459d7f46c/modules/Make.hs#L181 Here `make` is invoked from a separate thread and after it's complete an Editor action that updates error highlighting is dispatched to that queue on line 217. I should have also add a cancellation logic so that a later `make` cancels the current one, but I was too lazy.
