Hi,

Well, as many of you will have already noticed, a new 'threaded' version of BlitzMax is now available via SVN!

This is all highly experimental and will probably take some time to get right, but bear with us as I think it's worth taking the leap into threads-land! If nothing else, it's kind of fun...

So there could be bugs and there is a log files (such the one reported by GFK) related to the current testing approch.
Since the multithreading is not OFFICIAL (*) you can use it at your risk (consider that you still need to type manually bmk makemods -a -h to re-compile all blitzmax modules to be mt compatible...unless you dont' change MaxGUI source the handle this)

(*) = I mean there's not an official module if you install via setup.exe, a BETA-Module is something different...
