Do you think you can implement an example in Gtkmm? I can try, but I'm not sure how to go about this.

I'm having problems implementing this in a GUI...

I'm having problems implementing this in a GUI I've made with Glade:

typedef struct Data data;
typedef struct {
GtkWidget *t1view,
*t2view, *t2button;
} Data;

GtkTextBuffer *textbuffer1, *textbuffer2;

// Function prototypes:
void on_mainwindow_destroy (GtkObject *, gpointer);
void on_t1button_clicked (GtkButton *, Data *);
void on_t2button_clicked (GtkButton *, Data *);

int main (int argc, char *argv[]) {
GtkBuilder *builder;
GtkWidget *window;
Data *data;

if( ! g_thread_supported() )
g_thread_init( NULL );
gdk_threads_init();
gtk_init (&argc, &argv);

builder = gtk_builder_new ();
gtk_builder_add_from_file (builder,
"tviewgui.glade", NULL);
window = GTK_WIDGET (gtk_builder_get_object
(builder, "window"));

data = g_slice_new(Data);
data->t1view =
GTK_WIDGET(gtk_builder_get_object(builder,
"t1view"));
data->t2view =
GTK_WIDGET(gtk_builder_get_object(builder,
"t2view"));
data->t2button =
GTK_WIDGET(gtk_builder_get_object(builder,
"t2button"));

textbuffer1 = gtk_text_view_get_buffer(GTK_TEXT_VIEW(data->t1view));
textbuffer2 = gtk_text_view_get_buffer(GTK_TEXT_VIEW(data->t2view));

gtk_builder_connect_signals (builder,
data);
g_object_unref (G_OBJECT (builder));

gtk_widget_show (window);
gtk_main ();

return 0;
}

void on_window_destroy (GtkObject *object, gpointer user_data) {
gtk_main_quit();
}

void on_t1button_clicked (GtkButton *t1button, Data *data) {
GtkTextIter ei;
gtk_text_buffer_get_end_iter(textbuffer1, &ei);
gtk_text_buffer_insert(textbuffer1, &ei, "Text
1...\n", -1);
int i;
for (i=0 ; i<5 ; i++) {
gtk_text_buffer_insert(textbuffer1,
&ei, "Text 1...\n", -1);
while (g_main_context_iteration(NULL,
FALSE));
sleep(2);
}
}

void on_t2button_clicked (GtkButton *t2button, Data *data) {
GtkTextIter ei; //
gtk_text_buffer_get_end_iter(textbuffer2,
&ei);
gtk_text_buffer_insert(textbuffer2, &ei, "Text
2...\n", -1);
}

If I want a thread to start when I click t1button (on_t1button_clicked), and to keep running while I do other studd (f.ex. clicking t2button) - where and how do I start the thread?

Very clear and easy to understand, thanks!

Dude, i just love you for that . not tested yet but ive no doubt it surely works perfectly.
Finally ican move my apps to threads and get rid of that nasty redraw evetns in my time important routines.

Keep it up.
