Hi Mike,
There is no provision in X-Talks for multi-threading; so you'll have
to approach it another way. One can place wait statements in a
handler so mouseUp or other pending messages/events can grab the CPU
(and not give it up until finished or in wait state); but otherwise
the engine will not send any message until the current handler (and
any handlers that called it) finish execution.
