How are you threading multiple processes with one exw.exe while doing
calls to winapi functions that don't let you proceed until they return
something? I am using multiple exw.exe's, each of which also spawns a
winoa386.mod and a vm.exw. Until i can get the winapi to.... hmmmmmm,,
just had a thought... what if one of the windoze gurus here wrote an
application,, another wrapper as it were, in a threaded puter language, for us
to pass winapi calls to, and it generated the events to call back into our Eu
code? Would the combination of that wrapper and Eu then make Eu
threaded with only one exw.exe running?

It was my impression, since i asked about winet generating windoze events
and no one replied, that what i wanted to do wasn't possible. I am extracting
data from webpages, and from what can see, all the winet.dll calls are C
functions, and don't make callbacks. If they did, then i could toss a event at
winet.dll, i do things while it does things, then it triggers an event i have in
my code and i process it. Am i right?

Well, light the candles on the path for us to follow you, k? 
Only way i have found to do it *easily* is to use mirc as the gui and let it
spawn as many exw.exe on multiple ports, talk to them, and kill them off as
needed. I suppose Eu could be the "mother program" as well tho, i just
haven't gotten around to trying it, no free time here.
