Is there a better way to do such a thing?
Well, that's one option. Your other two options are to implent your program with multiple processes or to use event-loop programming. Your basic design looks reasonably sound, though you might consider multiple threads to process messages (which probably won't provide any performance boost but could enhance response if you're using callbacks at all). -- Aahz ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "I disrespectfully agree." --SJM -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
