Hi Ferlin,
Well, i wanted to call it something that was already familiar to
users and not make them wonder what the heck it was :)
Right now im thinking about "Thread Manager for Pseudo Threads",
because it is in fact a threading manager, but the threads arent
'true' threads the way i think most people would expect (at least
not yet). Funny thing is, in thinking about a second version
(that allows true time slicing with the usual thread polling)
im comming up with a more complicated model that, to the end user,
will appear exactly the same for many gui applications!
Yes, it will be closer to 'true' threading, but the only one
who will know the difference will be the person that programs
the app! That's another reason why i have to call it some sort of
threading or another, even before version #2.
At least it performs a function that is useful to applications
even the way it is now, so what the heck :)
Take care,
Al
And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
