Re: [Fxruby-users] chores & timeouts

[Tom <tku...@so...>]

I sort of answered my own question.  I wrapped the long-running piece in 
a Thread.new, with its last statement removing the 100ms timeout, and 
everything works the way it should now.  At least that's what I think!  
Is there any reason to not do that?
