[pygtk] Gtk programming technique question...

[Patrick Sabin]

Don't know, how you get the images. However, if I have to do some gui 
and some other I/O, I usually use twisted, where you don't have the 
troubles of synchronizing your data for different threads/processes. You 
can integrate the twisted reactor into the gtk main loop.
